Hi Steven, Your vehicle has nice easy location just under your engine cover. Two 10mm bolts are all that hold the thermostat housing down, and it even has a rubber gasket to seal. No need for scraping off the old one! You'll find the housing attached to the upper radiator hose on the engine side.

Good luck,
