Replace Ignition Lock Cylinder in 1999 SE - how hard?

I just had to do a 'rescue' on a stuck ignition switch for the 1999 SE 2.3lpt my daughters are sharing at school. It froze in the -10F and lower temps and would not turn with key fully inserted. Might or might not have had some moisture introduced to 'help' the process, but it's been getting sticky over time. I used a small hair dryer (inverter powered) to warm the switch and eventually get it to work.
I orderd a new lock cylinder from eEuroparts - it lists at about 3X the price they charge for the 03-09 switch cylinders. With this kind of price difference, how different is the process to remove and replace? I have WIS and will read, but sometimes details are lacking.
Thanks in advance !
