can't see why it won't go straight on. there is no fuel release, they are just manual. series 2 au have reverse light's in your rear light so wireing should be the same..

Can you remember how many mounting bolts and their locations please?
From memory, there should be 12 screws holding on the tub liner and then there are 8 bolts holding the actual tub on. There are 4 on each side around 30-40cm from the edge of the tub and they line up with the cross supports that the tub sits on. Apart from the weight of lifting the tub on/off it is very easy to do. (So long as the holes line up correctly)

Cheers, Rhys
