Yes, try doing a search. It'* very easy to do.
Wait until the engine is cold. Undo the 2 10mm bolts holding the tstat housing on. Take off the housing remove the tstat. Put the rubber ring seal (a new one) around the new tstat and replace it, the housing and the 2 10mm bolts. Tighten 11 ft/lbs. Make sure no coolant is left in the bolt holes or your torque settings will be off and you will probably leak.
