Replacing rear O2 sensor

Searched but couldn't find anything on this. How difficult a DIY is this? A guide for this would be much appreciated, thanks.

Unplug electrical connector...remove sensor...replace sensor...redo electrical connector......



How difficult it is depends on if you have a lift or not...will take longer on your back on the ground
