Hi,
The lights are held on by a couple of torx bolts, can't remember if its T-20 or T-25, you need to pop the rear parcel shelf out and undo the torx screws holding the panels in place in the boot. You can the get you hand up behind and fit a socket on the back of the bolts and undo them. When you put them back dont over tighten them due to the plastic!
Good luck

Jamie

As Jamie said there's 2 Torx screws on the front that need removing. But as for the back you just need to peel back the carpet enough to get your hand up and behind the light (may need to undo the screw holding the plastic that covers the top of the carpet just to give it enough slack) Once your hand is behind the light you'll feel a butterfly/wingnut you can undo with your fingers and remove the light unit.
