Haven't changed axles on that car but, the procedure will be similar to any other car.

Unstake and remove the axle nut at the wheel.

If the inner CV bolts on, use a triple square / XZN bit to remove 6 bolts.

To get the inner part of the axle to clear, you may need to move parking cables / wires.

Tap on the outer axle bolt to disengage the splines from the wheel flange.

Don't move the car with the axle removed, the outer CV holds the bearing together.
