EIS replacement

Would I be able to order a new igntion EIS from dealer and replace it myself or is this a dealer only job? Do I need to program something after it is installed?

Must be done by dealer. I believe the STAR system is required

This isn't from my personal experience, but $1423 is a price I've seen that included a diag to a faulty EIS. There are three prices that total up to that number for the EIS swap and programming. Here are the prices on the invoice but they're not itemized:

515.10
790.60
118.00
p/n 207 905 72 01

The invoice included diag, steering wheel removal, instrument cluster bezel removal, column tube module removal, remove+replace EIS, program with workshop key.
