Default its a pretty simple job, but the TRE can get stuck or seized in the inner TRE.

Lots of PB, Torque, Right Wrenches, and heat help get the passenger side one off. The drivers was easy for some reason. I think I had that one replaced awhile ago. But passenger was original. My car came from NY so yours might be easier.

With no issues, can be done in a hour.
