Hi,

I changed mine a few years ago, wasn't particularly hard just a bit stinky as you end up having to put your arm into the petrol tank

Just remove the large black metal plate at the back of the boot which is with the strut brace. Then on the right you'll see the metal cover which is over the fuel tank, once this is removed you will have access to the top of the tank where the fuel pump is located. Sorry I can't give you exact details it was over 4 years ago I changed mine but it shouldn't be too hard just make sure you've already disconnected the battery before you start.

I done mine at the weekend, as Mike has already said applies.
Unscrew the big black plastic ring on the top of the tank and all will be revealed. The pump is attached to a metal carrier and is simply slotted onto a bracket fitted to the tank, lift it all out together after pulling all the plugs off. Theres a rubber sleeve around the pump and you'l probebly have to re-use it for the new pump. This was abit of a bastid to get the pump out of, i used a couple of screwdrivers and washing up liquid and eventualy levered it out.
After the new ones fitted, make sure all the pipes are secured tight and make sure you'v got the polarity of the pump the right way round or it will pump in reverse.
Carefully refit the plastic lid on the tank as its easily cross threaded then fefit the 3 fuel lines, job done.
