Not a difficult job but the headlight assembly does need to be removed.
First if you haven't got any torx screwdrivers or bits, get some. Then open hood, remove grill (remove the two trox screws on the top of the grill then lift it out), remove side marker light (one trox screw on top, I usually leaving it hanging from its wiring harness), then remove the three screws or bolts (don't really remember, either 3 torx or 2 torx and a 10mm bolt) that hold in the headlight assembly, disconnect wiring connector by first sliding out the red locking collar then pulling it off. The headlight will then come out the front.
To change the lens, you pop off the six clips holding it on and remove the old lens. I usually install the new lens with the new gasket that it comes with but reuse the original clips in lieu of the new ones as they are easier to get on. Reverse removal procedure to get the headlight back on the car, being careful when replacing the side marker, it has a couple of tabs that need to be aligned with slots on the car.
