Exactly like PAV says. Remember to buy a new copper crush washer. You can use a 1M length of garden hose , stick one end in a cup of boiling water to soften it for a few minutes if the funnel is slightly too big to fit in the end of the hose.

Yeah pretty easy just make sure you have plenty of rags/cardboard down to catch any oil when filling back up as it can get messy.

Seriously mate it just as easy as draining the engine oil it's just the refilling that gets messy.
