the plastic cover pops right off (there are tabs along the outer edge and 2 plastic pop 'clips' in the center. You will then need to drill a hole in the rear strut brace to gain access to the adjustment needle (assuming it's on top)

Where in the strut brace does the hole need to be drilled assuming you don't know where the adjustment needle sits? It seems like you would have to pretty much guess where the adjustment **** is and hope for the best.

best bet is removing the shock from the car (1 bolt at the bottom of the damper, 2 at the top), and marking/drilling the hole from underneath
