How hard to change the wheel bearing?

I bought a 86 500sel. It needs two front wheel bearings. How hard are those to change? I called a shop and they quoted me 1500 to change both bearings. I might do it myself if it isn't a daunting task.

$1500 is to much money should be under $200.Don't use a dealer,use a tire place that rebuilds front ends.On the w126 I'd let a shop replace it,cause they have a press
