look at any other exhaust install, and subtract the steps for hanging half of the exhaust hangers during the reinstall process.

here's the short version.

jack the car up
put jack stands under the car
undo the bolts to the cat
use wd-40 and a screw driver to take the exhaust off its hangers
bolt up new exhaust - jack is helpful in holding it in place
more wd-40 to put exhaust hangers back on
bolt it to the cat

they come with instructions but its useless. all it says is like take off the stock exhaust carefully, and install the exhaust.
