I guess it can be easy. I had a devil of a time getting the sensor off the electrical connector -- must've taken 40 minutes standing on my head under the hood to get it apart. From that point it was 2 minutes.

If it thinks it's less than 60 your AC wont work, ask me how I know. It's too late today to fix it

Murphy's Law eh ? If it can be a PITA it will be !

My Outside Temp display just started reading wrong today. Vette is a 2000, so I guess it's time to replace the sensor.
