Double Bass How to replace double bass strings

I need to replace my E and A or 4th and 3th strings respectively.
I'm replacing them with the low B and the F# for the 5ths tuning.

Can someone walk me through the "how to" of properly replacing the strings myself without having to go to a bass guy.

Thanks much,
James
