what out for the rear left pillar m8
its got wires/ribbon cables in it

As above really, took this from Oil burners' How To on rear light installation:

working from the boot, pop the tab from the passenger side C-pillar trim, remove the two visible screws, unscrew the passenger seat belt from the top anchor and the lower boot trim. It helps to remove the side portion of the seat (the bit attached to the car) for access.
You will see 3 torx screws (everything seems to be torx heads!), one hidden near the seatbelt top anchor. Remove all these. Pop out the lower plastic boot cover (behind the seats). Remove the boot light.
Then carefully remove the boot trim from the passenger. It will have one plastic clip holding it in place.

You should now have access to the entire rear fusebox and see the wiring harness running from there up to the roof, through the C-pillar trim.

Have a look at the picture from when I had my headlining out, I also think they may be bonded in, I remember seeing a picture on here of Mark/GSI3.2 levering a rear quarter out.
