This may be he3lpful to get you started.

From Dr. Google:

To replace a 2023 Chevy liftgate latch, you'll typically remove the inner panel by popping clips and unscrewing Torx screws (T27/T30), access the latch from behind, disconnect the wiring harness, unbolt the old latch (often 10mm bolts), and reverse the process with the new part, using a trim tool and sockets for the job, with videos showing specific steps for models like Tahoe or Bolt EUV.

General Steps (May Vary by Model):

1. Open the Liftgate: Use the key fob to open the glass or the whole liftgate if possible to get started.
2. Access the Panel: Open the glass and remove a T27 Torx screw near the strap; then pry off clips to partially remove the inner panel, allowing access to the motor wiring and latch area.
3. Remove the Panel: Work around the edges, using a pry tool to pop clips and potentially sliding the panel up/forward to fully remove it, revealing the latch.
4. Disconnect Wiring: Unplug the electrical connector from the latch and potentially remove clips or grommets for the wiring harness.
5. Remove the Latch: Use a 10mm socket to remove the bolts holding the latch in place and pull the old latch out.
6. Install New Latch: Mount the new latch, reconnect the harness, and reverse the panel removal steps, ensuring all clips snap back in and screws are tight.
