DIY guide for Replacing Trunk Props/Struts

Hi guys, about to order a pair of new trunk props/struts because current ones have some mild rust on it. Are there any guides or a simple DIY to this or are there any special tools needed? i tried inspecting the current ones and i dont seem to find any screw to remove / disassemble it.

Potentially in his defense though, I recently received a steering wheel for my car and noticed that the instructions that came with it are in kanji and kana.
