Easy job if you make the DIY "tool" (washers on a bolt) and they're cheap so may as well if you are going through the trouble.

unless you know they've been done before or aren't a "while you're in there" kind of guy. oh and for oil i just use 0W-40 Mobile 1 synthetic from Wal Mart, honestly works just fine on my little 2.5 and you can get it on sale for $20/5 qt.
Tubes and o-rings are not replaceable items on his '04, the same way they are on your earlier box.
