IT'S AN ACKWARD JOB THAT INVOLVES REMOVING THE INTERIOR FLOOR TRIM FROM THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT (BOLTS HIDDEN BEHIND SEAT BACKS AND WHEEL ARCH TRIM)AND LIFTING THE MASKING PLATE ( 4 BOLTS) YOU WILL FIND UNDERNEATH BEHIND PASSENGER SIDE REAR SEAT. THERE ARE THEN A MASS OF FUEL PIPES USUALLY HELD ON WITH JUBILEE CLIPS THAT ALWAYS HAVE THEIR SCREW HEADS IN THE WRONG POSITION AND A LARGE PLASTIC LOCK NUT TO UNDO. IF IT'S ANYTHING LIKE MINE BE CAREFUL OF THE ELECTRICAL CONECTIONS THAT LOOK FRAGILE.BE PREPARED FOR BRUISED KNUCKLES AND BACKACHE.

GOOD LUCK
