Have a vacuum cleaner to hand for the inevitable leaf rush when you remove it.

The video is helpful but you may find it's slightly different for left hand drive. On my 2004 I found a screw/clip was awkward, I was upside down in the footwell trying to work it out and nearly got stuck like a turtle on it's back however I am useless at this sort of stuff but manage it eventually and it was a right mess. Make sure you get a charcoal one.
