its not a mission it was literally just me,

take off front bumper,
take out airbox / remove standard pipe
remove passenger side headlight (can never remember which is o/s and n/s)
undo bolt holding batt down, remove battery(this gives you enough clearance to remove the standard tray
replace with DSG tray,
dremel the air box so new DSG pipe is a snug fit and reverse the above
