you follow the bottom radiator hose to the thermostat housing and disconnect the electrical connector ( the housing is located at the front of the intake manifold) you loosen the hose clamp and remove the hose then take out the housing bolts and remove the housing and the thermostat is right there make sure you put the new one in the same way the old one came out
