How easy is it to fit a clutch cable?

As the title says, how easy is it and how long would it take a mechanic to do?

the car is an 1.4 n reg Astra btw

I would like to do it myself but im in the middle of my finals and don't really need the distraction. I have replaced one on a Renault 5 and that was more difficult than i thought it should have been. after routing around it looks like the Astra's pedal attachment is even more difficult to get to.

The irony of this is that my TV died this morning and i was driving out to buy a new one when my car broke :rolleyes:

gonna be an expensive month
