The repair takes about 15 minutes but I work on cars all day. It'll probably take the average joe an hour. The tool consists of two pieces. One piece is tappered it fits over the column shaft when placed on the shaft the groove for the snap ring is at the very end of it. The snap ring goes on it like a ring would go on your finger. The next piece of the tool slides over the first piece and is used to ram the ring into its groove by hitting it with with a deadblow hammer.
The only place I know to get it is the dealership.. I can get a part number if needed.
I've seen it done without the tools but I wouldn't recommend it.
