Good DIY project as it requires no special tools, just a little patience. Probably took me two hours total (dealer book says .6 hr) but I screwed up a little...
The hardest part is getting the tie wraps around the sheet of foam insulation provided. To make room I unhooked the throttle body electrical connection, which helped make space, then used a piece of mechanic wire to fish the tie wraps around.
Underneath at the oil trap, it's a matter of either being able to see what you're doing, or get your arm in to work on it (tough to do both at once). A 13mm socket and 6" and 3" extension is required - use the 6" on the oil trap bolts and 3" elsewhere. I didn't need to disconnect the wire at the alternator however I did disconnect the ground at the battery to prevent sparkage.
Put it all back together - try to start - CEL and no start. ^&%#&%!! Left the throttle connector off so I got to learn how to reset limp-home mode.
Everything is working smoothly now though.
