And it's horrid to remove - I lost a nail in the process!

How difficult is it to remove the ecu itself? (without breaking a nail! lol)

It's a 5 minute job to remove. As mentioned above, lift the carpet, remove the kick panel disconnect the 3 harness plugs and lift the ecu out - simple

.

Just remember to disconnect the battery first

Wear gloves, the metal plate covering the ECU is quite sharp, cut myself to shreads when I took it off. Aside from that, should be able to swap an ECU in less than 20 mins.

I found harness plugs a real pain to get off when changing mine over.
