IC Pump upgrade

I apologize in advance for pissin off anyone who's tired of this topic again, but I'd like to be completely prepared for all possible issues or potential problems that could arise during the Bosch IC water pump upgrade installation.
Is it truly a simple swap out? No alignment issues with inlet outlet connections?
Any warnings I can be made aware of would be appreciated.
Thank you.

You can always get a shop to do it. Broadway Performance in Hackensack did mine. Turns out my pump has been dead first 3 months of ownership and I didn't even know -.-

Nope just get some good hose clamps to pinch it off and swap it out. Pretty easy job.
