It looked simple...but you have to drain out the coolant first and reach under to pull it out......not many nuts to remove.

Its almost too easy.

Theres two 10mm bolts..remove them...take the cover off and pull the old thermostat out and put the new one in.

Yeah, it is easy. Longest part is draining the radiator and filling the thing back up. Make sure you get a wrench that can take a angle because the 2nd 10mm bolt is in there at an angle.
