Well, it's a transverse-mounted engine in a reasonably crowded engine bay, so expect some difficulty. You'd have to get the old one out completely(drain coolant first), check the hole for any damages, apply a good quality gasket sealant and then tap/hit the new one in place without it capsizing. Put a short piece of wood across it and hit it moderately hard with a hammer, shift the position of the wooden crossmember, hit it again. Repeat until the new plug is seated. refill coolant, check for leaks.

Locate the bad freeze plug and remove parts that impede the facilitation of reaching the plug. Take a screwdriver and hammer out the old plug. Replace the plug with either a regular plug (a socket that fits the inside of the freeze plug helps) or a rubber expanding freeze plug.
