yup very easy, you need a pop rivet gun and drill for the strut.

not at all, the process was:

- remove 4 bolts holding the grab handle.
- Pull the door card off
- unscrew the LR strut and throw in bin.
- line up the replacement, mark the holes and drill.
- pop rivet it on, bolt the strut to the original LR strut holder.
- put the card and handle back on.

done.

Took 15 mins tops and I'm no grease monkey.
