The thermoswitch screws into the thermostat housing. You just unscrew it. I think it's 24mm or 27mm . . . .

LOL. I just found one that fits...hopefully I don't need a deep one. Cause this is the only one I have...

Another Q: Will coolant come out? Do I need to drain the fluid first?

yeah coolant will leak. You dont have to drain the system if you are going to put a new one in. just swap the fast! before you get coolant all over your arm
