Pretty much a fixture is a fixture and are interchageable without a great deal of hassle.
Turn the power off at the breaker that controls the fixture you want to change. Do not count on the switch as the hot feed may be in the box before going to the switch. Remove the screws that hold the fixture to the ceiling and pay attention to the connections. Unwire the connections and replace the mounting bracket if need be. Wire the new fixture like the old. Attach with the mounting screws. Restore power and test.
