Default Hood Lock Assembly

I am about to order 53510-48010 from mylparts.com but then would like to ask,

Is the HOOD lock assembly a DIY ?
Is it bolted ? something that is rivet, or welded ?

Bolted by 2 10mm bolts and 1 10mm nut.
I was about to replace mine because the return spring broke.
Ended up finding a spring that would work and replaced just that.
Soak down first with PB blaster just in case they're rusted out.
