Boot latch adjustment?

[CypressPhil]

Evening all. Before I start pulling trim out of the boot, I thought I’d ask the question here first.

Has anyone ever adjusted the boot latch on their IS?  Or know if it’s possible?

I’ve been having a clear out for my parents and had shoved so much junk in the boot, I had a job to close it. In my limited wisdom, I just ended up forcing it shut and squashing the junk down. 

The boot now seems to have a slight rattle and feels like it has too much play. Ive seen some cars where you can adjust the boot latch by loosening off a single bolt, sliding the bar up or down, then tightening the bolt back up. The IS is covered by trim, so I can’t see if it’s the same set up without popping clips out and removing the trim. 
Many thanks

Looks like 3 screws and some clips to remove the trim, then you can loosen and adjust the striker.
