Fairly straight forward to change if a little awkward. You should be able to pick up a new matrix for around £30 and fit within a couple of hours if not sooner.
Make sure you refill your coolant with anti freeze, these cars were designed to run with G11 which is blue and doesn't mix with G12 (pink).
