Default Quickest way to drop the rear strut?

Rattle at right hat shelf level seems likely to be bad right rear upper strut mount. [Already ruled out loose parts in window shade mechanism.] I don’t plan on doing anything other than changing that mount. What’s the easiest way to access the thing? And is it possible to tell if that’s the culprit without pulling it at all? Thanks for any advice, Z (1998 A8Q D2 144k)
