I had to do this while on vacation this past summer. The bulb costs about $10-15 at W-M. You'll need a small Philips head IIRC to unscrew the outer housing (under the hood). There is a rubber flange that covers the bulb and keeps it watertight. Study this carefully - maybe even shoot a pic of it before you begin. (You can also reference the other headlight as you work.)

There is a metal clasp tensioner that holds the light/flange in place. You have to basically undo that clasp, peel back the flange, and then simply unplug the old light and remove it. Replace the new light (hold it with a clean cloth so you don't get body oils on it and short it out) following the steps in reverse order. The hardest part, really, is getting that flange on there correctly (I had put mine on upside down and it took me a long time to discover why the metal clasp wouldn't properly seat as I abused my fingers)...and the metal clasp has a LOT of tension and if you fasten and unfasten it several times you'll feel it; it has to be put on EXACTLY the way it was or else it won't seat properly. Not a real difficult task, just a bit of a pain.
