I wanted mine changed by my indie and to be sure it was fixed 100% at the first opportunity.

You need to be sure you get the correct part, I understand they changed about 2006. This is why I purchased via frf giving vin details.

My indie charged me £40 to fit and it took about 20mins. Inynoponion, good value for their experience!

Hope this helps
Am thinking that, for the certainty, I'll get a new one. Any second hand ones seem very cheap (£50 via Lithuania) and don't fill me with confidence.
