follow the top radiator hose back to the engine... it's in that dome shaped housing. Should be 2 bolts and lift. Clean surfaces of any gasket material/sealant and remove thermostat. Install new thermostat and gasket/sealant and bolt back in place torqued to spec (12-15 ft.lbs). Make sure to note the orientation of the old thermostat so you get the new one installed in the proper direction.
