How to?
Open boot take trim off, change, put trim back and done. If you dont want two set of keys take the liny lock plates out (very much note orientation and order!!!) and swap them over.

What can you not see how it comes apart?

Boot trim, lock or lock cylinder?

Remove the inner boot panel and you will soon see how it comes apart

only done it on an estate before, inside trim has to come off, with hatch prob the trim around lock containing lights has to come off as well.
The moulding is fixed to boot lid with two M6 bolts.
