It's 99% easy to fit yourself, just the last 1% being a massive headache.
It's not too hard it's just that each engine model has a different ECU and requires the final wire going into a specific pin in here (not too hard) but then each engine variant has its own variations for different years, each having differing pin layouts in the ECU...
