I did mine myself. I went with the plastic impeller option, changed the thermostat, coolant and front engine mount all at the same time. I got the care up on jackstands, took off the cover behind the seats. With the motor mount out it is very easy. Check out the DIY writeups do your research and decide for yourself how YOU want to proceed. I wouldnt pay those prices to get the job done.

I think the engine mount removal is personal preference. I chose not to remove it, and had no issues getting the pump out. Two of the bolts were a little slower going, but IMO not as difficult as pulling the mount.
