OK.
Turn Steering wheel quarter turn to the left, remove cap and screw, centre and the same for the right.
3 screws out of the ignition cowling's underside and that should allow you to remove the bottom and top :)

Gently prise the lower trim under the clocks towards you (pull gently from the middle should unclip it)
You should now have 4 exposed screws, undo the top 2 and remove the upper trim out which will reveal all 3 screws for the clocks.

You will need to gently manoeuvre the clocks out (or you can remove the steering wheel for easy access)

It's faily straight forward to do :)
