easy, take the cams out and get a special tappet magnet and they just lift out then you just drop the new ones in. they are pretty expensive about £10 each so roughly £160

i hate messing about with cams and stuff, timing is a bitch! Ill probly get my local garage to have a go at it, i just checked and i does sound like it taps from the inlet mianfold/injector rail, want to go down the cheapest route ideally

Buy it cheap, buy it twice. If you get them from Vaux you know they're good, e-bay's like buying something without a receipt.
