Default DIY guide for upper balljoint available?

I'm trying to save the $160 labor cost I've been quoted at three places locally and was wondering if there was a "upper Ball Joints for Dummies and their X300's" somewhere?

The idea of loaded kinetic energy from springs being near my body is the only reservations I have being as I am not an experienced mechanic-type.

Thanks!

they look surprising much like the old Lotus Elan upper ball joint, which I just watched being changed out last night on Wheeler Dealer...LOL
