that sum-bich is flopping around on the back deck like an epileptic at a strobe light convention. do i have to take the seats out to get to the back panel to tighten it down?

There are 2 screws, one on each side near the base. That is all that should be holding it on. But I highly doubt you need to remove the seat at all. Other way to get to it, is from underneath the deck from the trunk.

That's because it screws down on top of the the rear deck, it's a metal bracket. Remove the two side screws from the light housing and take the assemble out.
