Default Start/Door Pushbuttons?

How hard is it to change out the Start/Door Pushbuttons. Ours are beginning to show wear and as OCD as I am, they WILL get changed out. Any secrets to this, or is it easier/better to just have it done?
Thanks.

They are extremely easy to replace. You can have them in and out in a matter of minutes.

They're all easy. The door button assemblies can easily be pried out without removing the interior door panels. There's plenty of wire so it's a simple matter of disconnecting the old and connecting the new. The ignition switch is also easy but you need to remove the instrument clusted bezel to do it. Even so, it's definitely a do-it-yourself task.
