Three of them should be easy, and the fourth isn't necessary.

Just plug it in and toss it in the trunk. It won't go anywhere.

Default They should all be easy...

if you peel back the lining on the left wall of the trunk (will need to release about 5 clips), you will have full access to the CD changer mounting bracket. Remove it from the car, install the changer to the bracket, and re-install the bracket!

Default I got three in...

...using a right-angle bit driver, but I couldn't get the fourth in either. I've had it in for about six months, and it's never skipped.

I remember reading something about removing the whole bracket making it very easy to get at all four screws, but it doesn't seem to be necessary.

removing the bracket was easier than trying to get all the screws in without taking it out.
