How hard is drive belt change?

After the 100 point inspection, where they said i needed drive belts, I checked napa, about 25 bucks for the belts, called around a few places, one place quoted me 100, another 65, is this a rip? I've never done belts before, how hard is it to do? I've regreesed starter, KS change, stuff like that, with basic tools, no air tools. Do you guys think i should pick up a hanes manual and try it myself?

65 bucks isn't a bad price... for something you need to do every 60k. Its not hard to do yourself, but people have had problems with breaking some of the bolts loose and also shearing the tensioner bolt... I'm going to take mine in - got it done for 99 bucks including parts at the dealer when I was at 60k and will get it done again at 120k.
