Have a read here, you need to remove the false floor hardware to start with.

Retrofitting false floor
Was wondering if anyone can advise how to retrofit the rear false floor. I have all the parts but I have to remove them from my other car. Is there any step by step instructions on how to do it ? I might attempt to do it myself. Thanks Paul

I would try taking out the back light to look for fasteners. Not clear on 7zap site here;

You're almost there so it will be something small.

Thanks for the link I'm not sure I have explained myself clearly, its the long thin black plastic panel from either side of the tail lights up to and past the gas struts its a very long so i dont want to damage it.Have a read here, you need to remove the false floor hardware to start with.

Thanks i did start to pop off what sounded like a few clips right at the top near the wiring loom but then had to stop as i did not what to keep trying in case i broke it
On the link you supplied its https://audi.7zap.com/en/rdw/audi+a2/a2/2003-248/8/853-853000/#3 described as 'cover for weather strip'

I hope I'm posting in time but it's very easy to break one of the clips and very easy to lose another down inside the body. I have posting - let me find it.
EDIT: Here is the rear part by the tailgate. I only need to pull it away. I think you will need to remove the seats to completely remove the panel

EDIT 2 and reinstalling

There aren't many decent diagrams for that part.
There will be someone who knows how. I've not attempted to remove that part of the weather stripping as I was concerned I might damage it.
Jet washing behind it sounds safer
