Its not a PITA, but will take some time if this is your first time doing it. Just follow the directions and you'll be fine. Theres nothing involved that takes a pro mechanic, but there are a lot little things that can bring the suck. Using the retainers are straight foward, but getting the nuts on some of the bolts can be tricky since theres not a lot of room to work with on the back side. A long, strong pair of needle nose will definatley help.
Heres the instructions just incase:

Good luck!

One tip for you... If you are doing it on a cold day use a blow dryer to heat up the plastic retainer push pins right before you install. Otherwise you will end up with a bunch of cracked pieces of plastic in your hands. You'll play hell trying to find them at Pep Boys or the zone...
I can't wait to get them on... Probably going to have to wait until after Thanksgiving though... family coming into town
