Fitting the MTC's is a piece of cake.
Removing the OE can isn't.... depending on your viewpoint.
Seat off,
grab rails off
rear rack off
tail section off
remove old can.
Then, I'd put the tail section back, the rack and the grab rails back before fitting the MTC's.

No, it's near the underside of the bike - no need to worry about that.
You are going to be left with a hole under your seat, which will fill with everything you ride over... While you have the bike in bits make up a cover, I used an old plastic paint pot lid, but Chinese cartons, tupperware lids, old mud flaps - anything that is a bit flexible but strongish too will do (not cardboard !!!!)
The old can is a weighty beast - be ready for it.
