Rear Main Seal

Hi all,
Has anyone done this job of replacing their seal?? I'm coming about due for mine. I would just like to know what is involved(and what else I should tackle while in there) to swap it out. My mechanic is wondering if the starter bolts are both accessible from one side or are facing opposite directions thus requiring exhaust removal(I think that's what he was wondering about, anyway, from what I can remember). Any help or advice would be appreciated. Also, what parts will I need to do the job thoroughly and effectively?? Is there a DIY on here or on utube or anywhere else possibly, to get an idea of the task? Thanks


Steve
