Model Year 21/22 Centre light bar replacement

Hi, my centre light bar is cracked.
I was reversing in front of my house and hit a tree :/

I found that the part number is 5ff945307b, and ordered used one from one webshop.
It should arrive in a week.

I am trying to figure out if I could replace it by myself. Unfortunately I didn't find any guide to show me how to do. My assumption is that I only need to remove plastic trunk panels, disconnect the accumulator and that's it =D

Does anyone have experience with rear center LED strip replacement?

It looks as if the body panel immediately above the light strip might also have taken a little knock when you hit the tree. The section of the body panel I‘ve marked in the picture below looks slightly raised compared to the panel on either side of the circled area.

If there is damage to that panel, you might be able to live with it as appears to be very minor.
