Default coolant bottle in wing ?

hi huys n gals, im new to the whole scooby scene so be gentle with me
ok, i have a 96 sti and its losing coolant.....im 99% sure its leaking from the coolant bottle in the wing [if i blow down the pipe at the bottom and put my hand over the filler hole i can hear bubbling in the wing and water splashes-out]
so question is peeps, do i need to remove the wing to get access to the tank? and any tips on removal of parts to gain access greatfully recieved........
thanks all
