make sure its in the lowest gear 1st off.

have you taken the top carbon cover off?? if so then thats correct.

after that it is fairly easy!

Do you mean yoiu're struggling to feed the cable through the hole on the shifter? If so you need to slightly bend the last few mm or so of the end of the cable with a pair of pliers. Should feed thorugh if you do this.
