2005 HUMMER H2

I have several issue with my 05 hummer h2. First is I would like to remove the rear tire carrier. Its a pain to open the rear of the car with the big swing arm on there, I want to remove it and put the license plate on the back of the car. How do you do this? Is there a step by step process?

I also need to clean out the drain in my sunroof whioch are really clogged? How do you do that?
My brakes squeel like there is no tomorrow and now the ABS and TC traction control light are coming on, what does that mean? Do I need new brakes?

Thank you so much for your help.

There are two drain hoses you will need to run a flexible wire up it but yo have to remove the panle near tailgate. Pic enclosed. To get the spare tire carrier off you have to remove items 2 & 3 in pic. For license you will have to rig something up to move it because it's menat to be in center of tire. Alsoyou willneed to mount a light on it otherwise you are a target for a ticket. The abs and tc will have to be scanned for codes to find out what is wrong. Brakes can be checked then.
