Unscrew the old one, put the new one in.

Paint the exposed portion for correctness if desired.

Ive seen some re-lube them, but the ones Ive bought have lube gooped in there already.

Ive never had one break and snag, they just seem to lose their ability to hold the door in place.

Not sure if that itself is repairable, and Ive never really looked into why it happens...
