Undo the big nut in the center of the brake rotor (seen from the outside with the wheel cover off). Lift the car, separate the lower ball joint from the spindle. The outer end of the CV should be loose in the spline in the center of the rotor. Pull the strut/ rotor assembly outwards and off to one side (2 people is nice), pull the outer end of the shaft out of the rotor spline. You may be able to pull the shaft out of the trany at this point (grab it at the inner joint as you will pull the tripod apart by yanking on the shaft section). If its being difficult make sure the vehicle is supported properly before you slide under it and pry it out of the trany. Check the seal in the trany before you put the new shaft in and replace it if needed. Put it all back together the way you took it apart making sure the inner end is as far in the trany as the old one was. Be carefull not to damage the seal when you insert the inner joint end into the trany (a little lube is a good thing, trany fluid will do). Don't forget to check/top up the fluid after you're done.
