From what I know its pretty difficult. My lazy ass had someone else do it while they were changing my Timing Belt. Anyway maybe someone can add the exact details of installation. Good Luck.

trust me, it's not easy to do yourself, think about doing an UDP install, and KEEP GOING!
if you are not 100% positie you can do it correctly then you should have someone help you, if you mess up the tension on the belt or don't line things up properly then at best the car will run poorly, at worse you'll bend some valves

You CAN do it by yourself with the right tools ect ect..The procedure really is not that hard. You have to basically do everything to remove the timing belt, but before you loosen up the timing belt you need to loosen up the bolts holding the cam gears on. I can do the entire job in like 2.5-3hrs start to finish.

Not easy for those that aren't very mechanically inclined. I would NOT do it yourself unless you know how to do timing belts already. Some shops can't even properly install cam gears in our cars.

Do NOT attempt the install if you do not know what TDC is and how to find it easily. You'll also need a GOOD three arm puller to get the damn UDP off... that thing is ON there. While your at it, I would go ahead and replace it with an aluminum one.
