There are two different ways to do this, trust me I know I just did the same thing on my van. The hard way is remove the alternator and a small hose and then just remove the thermostat housing and there you go. But this way it is hard to remove the bolts that hold the thermostat housing on, and also you can't see the bolts you have feel around The easy way you still have to remove the alternator but also remove the compressor located at the top of your engine. And then remove the bracket that holds the alternator and compressor and there is your thermostat, in plain view, nothing in your way and can inspect all of your hose's as well with all of this out of your way. It's a little more work but you will know that it has been done right.
