Default How do I change the thermostat?

Can anyone point me to a website or somewhere that gives me a step by step on how to change the thermostat on my 2005 c230 kompressor???

Is it as simple as draining the cooling, removing the radiator hose that leads to the engine, unbolting the housing and replclacing the thermostat?

Is there a drain plug somewhere for the coolant? What kind of coolant do I need to put back in? is it a 50/50 coolant and water mix? Do i need to silicone the thermostat or are the o-rings all that is needed to seal it in?

Thanks guys for your imput/direction!
