there's no trick to it, it just really sucks. depending on the sockets you have, you just need to work out what combination of extensions or universal joints will get you to the nut. once you get to it you'll still have trouble loosening it because you'll probably only be able to twist it a tiny bit. it does help if you've got other parts of the interior/dash out so you can contort yourself around to get the best angle

I JUST did this yesterday. It sucks like super bad. You just gotta go at it with a super calm mind. After about an hour laying on my back and cursing up a storm I finally got it tightened.

I have a tiny 1/4 drive set with extenders and ball joints that helped. Worth the purchase if you're still struggling.
