   easy m8 look at the guides on here, i did myn myself and i have no mechanical or bodywork expirience wat so ever.... just when you take your old one off remeber where the bolts went. the hardest part is probaly the bracket either side of the car holding the front bumper on. as for the bonnet i think its 2 bolts on hinges either side and the windscree nwasher hoses which im not sure how to change but im sure somebody on here knows a bit more about it!
   good luck hope it goes alright for you!
