I just performed this repair. There are posts out there that gives you step by step instructions on how to do it.

I believe I paid $150 for the replacement part.

Yup, these were the two guides I used along with a download of the official workshop guide just to check the torque settings. It's not a very difficult job apart from perhaps one bolt that's a bit tricky to get. But I'm a total novice and had no real problems.
