How much does it cost to have the timing chain tensioners replaced?

Has anybody done it themselves? If so how long did it take and how much were parts?

I had all mine done with new chains as well, total cost about £1,200
A few members of our club have done them their selves, contact www.xkec.co.uk

Cost me (and Jaguar warranty) £1000. That was two years ago from Creamers of Kensington.
Don't see why it wouldn't be a fairly simple job for a compotent home mechanic (unlike myself).
