Shift Boot replacement... 2 Hrs or less?

Ok... my shift boot and **** set is coming tomorrow. I'll have about 2 hours before I leave and go down to Purdue for the football game on saturday (gotta get some partyin' in), so can I get the console taken apart, swap the boot and put it all back together in 2 hours or less? I've read the DIY, but can't gauge how long it would take. Obviously, the shift **** is a 30 second job.

It's really easy, I think I replaced my shifter assembly with a revo SS in about an hour and a half from start to finish and it involves taking off the same stuff.

Dude, it should take you no more than a half hour with the right tools: Stubby phillips screwdriver, long phillips screwdriver, 3/8" ratchet with stubby extension, small flat screwdriver, and some shop towels.
