Presume it's the same as my 172 - Bullets and front diamond can be sometimes just be pulled off, failing that prise off with a screwdriver wrapped in a rag or similar to prevent scratching. Rear diamond is accessed from inside boot, remove rear trim panel one screw on right hand side then pull the panel away carefully, it's secured by clips that you just push back into afterwards. Then remove three 10mm nuts that hold the whole diamond surround in place, the bolts may need a gentle nudge but it should just push out.

Perfect cheers buddy thought that would just be the case but just thought might aswell ask first about them, the bullets just clip back in place no problem? Or would I need too silicon them back on?

They clip straight back in but be a bit more careful with them as the clips are brittle. iirc they have 3 clips, 1 top and 1 bottom on the straight bit and one central in the semicircle part if you get what I mean.
