not too big a job. radiator off , fan off. then pump is just three bolts. pump draws out. new pump has o rings fitted, just push new unit in and re tighten.
only difficulty is if you have auto box which is also connected to radiator. carefully undo pipes and fold up out of way. when lifting out rad be carefull not to lose transmission fluid and you should be able to replace without having to top up autobox.
