A bit tricky. Must remove mirror glass, mirror painted back-panel to gain access to wire conduit which is a hole from the mirror housing into the door panel. Must also remove inner door handle, 3 t-25 torx screws beneath inner handle, and pry loose all door panel clips located around the lower and both sides of the door panel. With door panel "loose", you can gain access to the electrical connection point where the temp sensor terminates. This is a connector plugged in just above door handle height, beneath the door panel. May have to splice the new sensor into the existing leads near the connector, unless you can take apart the electrical connector and plug new leads in.
