Very easy, you need to remove the plastic trim on the boot, this is clipped in place and can be removed by pulling on the trim. Once this is removed you will find 4 bolts, 2 on each side, unscrew these and the wing will lift off. It's a 5-10 minute job.

Be careful when removing the plastic trim on the boot though, as it cracks quite easily.Make sure you pull the panel at the points where they're clipped in.
The rest after that is straightforward as detailed by Nic.

Also becareful when you put the plastic trim back on, to make sure the clips are lined up with the holes otherwise you will bend/break them.

Can you not persuade :stickpoke the wing to flex 3-4mm to get the bolts in?
