5 screws from inside the boot lid into the plastic. Pretty sure it's 5.... (and one is a bit of a swine to get at, obscured by the locking mechanism)
I had mine off (and replaced it in fact) as part of my reversing camera install. Get the boot lid liner off and all will become apparent.
IIRC on both my original and replacement more than one of the pillars that the screws go into had split open.
There's also a fair bit of black gunk spread around...…
