Much easier job if the tank is empty to start with. Disconnect wiring, plumbing and filler pipe, keep some rags or towels on hand as you will get some spillage. Undo the securing brackets and lift out the tank, not much too it really. Take a couple of photos so you can easily identify how things hook back up on install.

remove rear seats and rear shelf 1st. abit time consuming but makes the job a whole lot easier, particularly removal of the filler neck.
