Replacing Cruise Control Switch in W124

I have done a search and seen some similar threads but not this exact topic. My cruise control switch on my 1994 E320 wagon broke - first the stick came off for the previous owner, finally it no longer responds to my giving it the finger (!). So I got a new switch and looked up the procedure to replace it on the Mercedes cds. Wow! there is a lot to doing this, apparently - remove lower cover on driver's side (68-150), remove airbag (91-660), remove steering wheel (46-8240) and FINALLY Removal and Installation of Pushbutton Switch (30-545). Is this a DIY job? How long should it take for someone of average skills? I never worked on an airbag, that makes me a little nervous, and I am going on a long trip in two weeks so I CAN'T spend more than a day on it. Any helpful hints also welcome!
