There are two screws, one in each of the handles, then literally a case of popping off the cover on the inside.

Then there will be three screws & a cable on the inside holding the badge on. undo these & twist the badge slightly it will come out  :happy2:

Not the greatest description but its pretty easy  :happy2:
