yep...I am putting in the diamond cut clears on rear sides of mine...and asked this ?....Just take out end tailights and reach thru...was advised to use a magnetic screwdriver and have an L shaped one on hand as its not the easiest angle to get too.

The nuts are self tapping and you don't have a lot of room to work in there. A box end wrench is a good tool to use for the job.

Best way is through the outer tail lights. Really easy, should only take a few mins.

More work, but you can remove the rear wheel and black plastic wheel well cover and you have plenty of room.
