I did it last week! I needed to pull the brake pedal up as far as it would go then prise the plastic plunger assembly off with a flat bladed screwdriver. It's a bit of a squeeze down there and it's almost impossible to see what's going on but once you get the screwdriver in the right place it should just pop out.

Easy when you know how :wink:
Much more positive feel now, it may take some getting used to.
