IT is extrememly easy to change. I tried to do mine about a week ago. It only has a single bolt holding it on.

The problem I had was that the new one I got had a slightly different shaped peg on it and it didn't fit properly. I think I go the one for the '95 Na vs the '95 SC since one is series 1 and the other series 2.

Just replaced one on a 97 NA - olds 88 ls
cost around $19.00 at carquest parts... checked prices at autozone n pepboys and around low $20'* however they didn't stock it.. complete tensioner assembly was around $90

these r prices for 97, but 95 shouldn't be that different.
