It's a pretty easy job, just be ready for the coolant spill into the footwells.
Don't bother with a new matrix from the likes of Eurocarparts, the 'partsforvolvo' online one that I got for our S70 is still doing fine, but make sure that you do get genuine Volvo O-rings. they are pence each and it's absolutely vital that you don't try to re-use the old ones.
I've done this repair several times now, and can say that it should take no long than 90 minutes, two hours at most.
