Default Camshaft positioning sensor V8 petrol

Hello chaps

My car refused to start the other day and I could hear it clearly cranking over but not 'firing' into life.

A quick scan seems to have revealed a cam positioning sensor fault. I've ordered two as they're cheap enough. My question is does anyone know how hard they are to replace?

I note the driver's side sensor sits at the front of the engine and the passenger side sensor at the rear of the engine.

Is it just a matter of un-doing the 2x bolts that hold these in place to remove them?


thanks
