Yup, take out the link back to the gearbox, and then undo the three bolts the hold the gearlever to the tunnel. With the gear lever hanging there by the boots above , you can then get the front half of the propshaft out.
The rubber seal behind the centering device (cylinder) at the front of the propshaft needs to be gently prised out and over the centering device before the coupling will come off. I would recommend that this device is serviced (cleaned and greased) when the donut is off.
You should not need to remove any of the bolts from the shafts.
The propshaft should actually have been removed in one piece, and therefore put back in in one piece. It is very hard to get the middle centering device (spherical bearing) to locate when half is in the car. Ensure it is properly located in its relevant bore before bolting everything back up. Lube it well too!
If you get it wrong, it's gunna vibrate like all getout! These shafts can be a bit finicky to work on so if you have someone who knows these cars well nearby, get them to help.
