Drain engine and transmission oil, (so it does not leak all over the trunk) tip unit onto it's side (don't bend anything)to drain any coolant from the block, remove package shelf, place a plastic tarp on trunk floor, get a piece of 1/2 or 3/4 inch plywood and place it on top of the tarp, lift the unit up about 2 feet with a come along or cherry picker, back the car to the unit,disconnect the bottom ends of the hatch supports,(so the hatch will open wider to allow for the come along cable) have a helper or two hold the hatch wide open and back the car under the whole unit. Lower the unit onto the plywood,disconnect the cable, and re-connect the hatch supports. To close the hatch completely (to avoid exhaust getting sucked in under way )tilt the unit on it's side.
