Coolant Expansion Tank

Ok, I found a huge crack in my coolant expansion tank this afternoon. I ordered one from Pelican (of course). How tricky is it to replace? I am not overly handy, so I was wondering if this is a relatively simple replacement, or if I should just give it to my mechanic?

Thanks

OOPS: yes this is for my '98 323 iC

Its easy but I'm pretty handy. Make sure you properly bleed the system afterwords. Directions are in Tech Info.
