Pull off the trim piece in the trunk, then it's (I think) 6 bolts that hold it in place (10mm if I'm not mistaken). Simple stuff

Be careful when you pull off the plastic panel in the trunk, make very sure that everything connection is disconnected. I made the mistake of pulling it out and I cracked it in half

The side tail lights need to come out too, at least on talons anyway.

maybe in talons but in an eclipse you don't need to pull out the tails.
I did it myself when I had my GSX.
It's a great simple mod to do, I think 2G dsm's with the center piece painted looks great.

Also I believe this has been covered once in great depth, if you do a search you should find it. It gives a great guide on how to pull out the center piece and the screws etc..
