No, relatively easy and quick to install. You may or may not have to shim a replacement screen.
It all depends on how good a job Pentax did with the registration of the factory screen. Let me explain: the point of focus is the underside of the screen and the location of that surface depends on the frame that holds it
and is the same regardless of who made the screen Edit: see later comment
below. If the stock screen is shimmed (some are), reuse the stock shims.
Since your camera has live view, you can check the registration by comparing your best effort at optical focus using a fast lens (f/2 or faster) against the live view display. You only need to shim if the focus is off. A flat target at fixed distance (say 20x the focal length...use a tripod) works best for this.
