Did mine today. All in all, a pretty easy install. The hardest part was finding the socket after I dropped it into the engine. It fell under the block but above the subframe. My brother spent 20 min with his hand in there from behind the wheel while I was using a stick from above pushing it over.... PITA!!!

Though, I did find one nice tip: I was having a hard time pulling the fitting off the end of the blow-by tube. To make it easier, I boiled a cup of water and submerged the tube in it. Once it was hot and the plastic was soft I could pull the fitting right off. Just make sure to grab the plastic with a towel. It gets pretty hot too!
