It looks like a typical booster, there are four mounting nuts that attach to the booster studs which are up under the dash, you will need a 14mm with a universal and a long extension to get to them. Here are the instructions to help you and if you have a problem. please upload an image so I can help walk you through it. Check out the images (below). Please let us know how it goes.

Can you upload images of the problem so I can walk you through the repair step by step? You might need to remove another part to gain access for the removal.
