It is no different in that the job seems simple that I would do it at home. It entails removing bolts in suspension, moving strut out of way then taking axle from behind wheel and slipping it out, along with the bearings attached. Then you can take boots off and bearings off then repack them with grease. There is a a great Youtube video how to do it. it is great cause he shows how to turn some bearing parts 180 degrees and back to front, so they fit like new and you immediately get like-new wear from them.
The hardest part seems to be getting the new inner CV bearing cover boot over the inner bearing. The second hardest is getting one of the bearings off. But it might just be a gentle whack with a bar. There is a circlip on there as well ..
