Yes, you need to remove the rear seat if it's a saloon.
Lift the parcel shelf up a little and you shoud be able to get at the top mounts.

Loosen the strut centre nut before removing the strut. It can be a pain to do off the car!!!

If you have a little bit of mechanicl knowledge you should be able to do this. Takes about an hour per strut if your changing the springs
