Access on a Touring is a little more time consuming than a Saloon in which you just remove the rear seat base .
Remove both rear seat bases.
Remove the carpet from the under-seat area. You may have to remove the seatbelt buckles and the sill trim to release it.
Remove the rail that supports the seat bases (several grub screws with tiny allen type heads)
Remove the access panel on the r/h side.
Remove the sender from the top of the pump (4 8mm nuts/washers)
Dis-connect pipework (you may require some small jubilee clips going back)
Remove the pump by rotating anti-clockwise. It's a bayonet type fitting, so the assistance of a screwdriver and hitting stick may be needed, or two crossed screwdrivers may work.
