undo electrical connectors and fuel pipes on top of the tank through holes under rear seat, pull off filler neck, drop exhaust down, undo bolts from underneath

found 2, but is there a 3rd or are they just a pain in ass n wedged?

Only two, at the back. It then has two ridges on the other side which sit on shelves welded to the chassis. Youll need to undo the fuel filler neck from the offside wheelarch as Mandyslover says too. Make sure you either have very little fuel (under a tenner) in there or you work on it on gravel etc, fuel stains driveways for fun
