Give it a shot. You might need some stubby or right-angle drivers to make your life easier. If you don't have the proper jacks and stands to hold the car up when you're working in the wheel-well then have someone do it for you if the wheel's do need to come off.

Cool. I'd say 2 beers though. There is an extra one at the end when you just gaze at your TL
