pretty easy really , front you just pop the clear plastic part out,  rear pull the full light cover off from the edges  and the footwell lights pop out with a screwdriver.   the hardest part is removing the heat shield from the footwell lights and thats not too hard tbh  :happy2:

Have a look through this. Had to modify the boot one with some folded up foil to bridge the gap. Any questions feel free to ask  :happy2:
