smae basic's apply for evey car
drine fluid remove starter,line,harness
in this case remove axle's(FWD)
remove flexplate bolt's
pull tranny and flex plate
pull off old rear main seal
clean area
grease inside of the new rear main seal with multi-purp. grease
tap back into place CARFULY (nice and easy you dont need to beat the shit out of it)
DONT use a screwdriver and while instaling it be sure NOT to damage the seal.
use a little bit of RTV and put a little bit around the edge of the seal where it push's into the engine.
then reasemble.
