There isn't a best way.

It's a case of having to remove enough trim and bits to be able to get it back and secured into place
 
Should it be relatively straight forward to do ?
Depends how capable you are. Likely to be awkward to find all the clips for the trim so lots of gentle pulling and pricing until you find out how and where things come apart.
As for securing the barrel depends if anything is broken or not
 
There should be a chrome (or rather plastic chrome) bit that screws on and holds the barrel against the shroud? It might have bounced under seat or somewhere?
