It is screwed into the coolant crossover tube under the intake manifold.
Just remove the wire connection, (its a blade terminal so it pulls right off) use a 12mm deep socket on a 6" extention and unscrew it and replace it with a new one.
Do it while the engine is cold.
You will lose a little coolant so be prepared to switch them quickly.

You don't want any animals do drink the green coolade!
