Default Exhaust mount chage: How hard

Hi Guys,

Looks like the rubber exhaust mount is broken on my partners AU2 sedan. This is the one in the middle connected to the centre muffler.

how hard is this to change, and can it be done at home on jackstands?

9/10 times they're pretty easy. that 1/10 times. use a reasonable pry bar (flat head screw driver) and your set.
