Yes, i'm sure the Bay13 site has instructions for removal of the internal tailgate trim and installation of new clips, or the kit provided by volvo. Its very simple, and if you are looking at simply putting in new clips along the top there is really no need to remove the entire trim piece.

If the plastic trim is not held on tight the rattle is possibly the trim against the glass. There are four clips along the top which hold the plastic on tight. To replace, just pull the plastic back a little. It should pop off any currently unbroken clips. Then slide out the old clips and slide in the new. You may want to try the clips from underneath the vents located in the wagon area. They fit great!

Goodluck.
