It's pretty easy...

Drain Oil

Remove all 13 12mm bolts from perimeter of the pan

Tap pan with deadblow hammer to free (it's silicone sealed and so need to be tapped)

Clean the pan completely using brake cleaner (esp. sealing surfaces, get off all the old silicone). Before cleaning, remove the rubber baffles so they are not attacked by the cleaner - work it off over the pins holding it.

Clean the mating surface on the block w/ brake cleaner

Using a high temp RTV silicone, apply an even bead around the edge of the pan and let set for 5 min. before reinstalling. There is no pan gasket, so sealing w/ silicone is a critical operation.

Replace all 13 bolts and torque to 10.5 ft.lbs. in a crosshatch pattern

Refill oil.
