mike410b, this is really easy. Jack up the rear end. Crawl under the car. Refer to Wafuls diagrams. First, remove 4 X #30 screws with a Phillips, then 2 X #37 bolts with a Spanner (or box wrench), and finally, 5 X #44 fasteners with the tip of a flat blade screwdriver. I was able to do this w/o taking the rear bumper off, although the service manual says to remove the rear bumper. Should take you 15 minutes or less.

Yes, there are 7 holes that are visible. I covered the holes on mine with 5 strakes and 2 LED lights.
