Easy enough as long as no bits get stuck inside the mechanism.
I replaced mine a couple of years ago and bent it again the next day.
You have probably found out how to do it but incise this is Yendors instructions below.
Are you just replacing the rope and mast or the whole unit including the motor?.
If it's just the rope and mast, unscrew the nut on top and remove the shroud that sits between the nut and the top of the guard.
Then just turn the radio on and pull upwards on the aerial mast at the same time, the old rope and mast should pull out. Sometimes it can be corroded and very difficult to get out.
Make sure you remove all the old rope, sometime it can break and leave a piece stuck in there.
To fit the new one just hand feed it in as far as it will go and then turn the radio off and gentle feed it back down as the aerial motor pulls it down.
If you have difficulty remove the old rope and mast you may need to remove the whole aerial from the vehicle.

Had the Patrol 30000 km service at the dealer (that should be enough to make me mad)
When I got it back I checked all the things that should have been done (and weren't), filled in the dealers feedback, heard nothing back.
Filled in the Nissan feedback form a week later, got the call from the Service Manager an hour later, arranged for to do what was required.
Good points, they changed the air filter & filled it with fuel to make up for having to bring it back.
Bad points, when they did take the wheels off to inspect the brakes, they used pliers on the wheel nut torque indicators and damaged them, I now have scratches on 2 rims that look like a wheel nut has spun in the rattle gun across the surface, the torque indicators were not put back pointing to the centre. Service Manager said he personally took the wheels off & did not do the damage.

A motorbike shop scratched my bike CB 900 bol d when they removed the split pin
on the rear axle and used plyers to remove it scratching all the alignment marks.
To say I was miffed was an understatement let fly at the owner never to return.
Then every month for 2 years I received a letter apologizing and my bike was due foe a service.
They say they take care but Im yet to see it, I cant stand people with rough work ethics.
I feel your pain Geeyou 8 they are basically calling you a liar Grrrr
