You just pop the hatch and there's some carpet/fiber like bullshit you have to move, then there's some big plastic wing nuts to unscrew as well. It's simple once you get back there.

There will be a nut on the very far side of the car that I could not see without a flash light. I missed this one when I changed my bulb.

Just a pointer.
