Can be done at home, they pop in with a bit of help from a hammer and a touch of sealant.

these are easy! had to do a couple last year, get the old ones out with a screwdriver etc , clean up the area, and tap the new ones into place.

appropriate size socket helps to ge them into position. Make sure the hole is clean before inserting them or they will leak.
