As I mentioned it depends on the model, my S2 Exige (2005) had a removable disk (big grommet) in the liner and the screws had thumb wheels so could all be done without tools. Just needed to turn the steering to full lock for better access.

Whalley - there's three slotted grub screws in the wheel arch which hold the lens cover on - as Ali says just use the lock to gain access - Top tip is to turn the lock the opposite way to what you would think - rather than turning the wheel away from the side you want to do, turn it towards - there's a bit less room to get your arm in but once it's there you've got plenty of space to work in.
