Its really easy to do mate, just hard to explain lol, lift the boot open so you can see the lights, then if you look there is a little rectangle cut out to the side of the light, put a small screwdriver or whatever is there at an angle away from the light then move the screwdriver to the opposite angle you were at as the lights are held in with a little metal clip tht needs pushing over then as youve done that try and pull the light out, its abit tricky but once youve done it once you soon get it how it works lol. Hope this helps, sorry for poor explanation just hard to explain.

If possible put a cloth between the paintwork and screwdriver, I chipped the paint a bit doing mine.
