wheel stud replacement ?

Did a quick search and nothing turned up...but i was curious if a wheel stud replacement on a 04 WRX is the same as a 02-03?? (from the looks on scoobymods.com it looks pretty str8 forward) since some idiot at american tire co. used impact guns to put my lugs back on the car...resulting in two ruined wheel studs....and a local mechanic quoted 400 dollars...since its a supposed 4hr job....thanks in advance

it is pretty straight forward but time consuming and the ABS reluctor ring is very easy to damage ....

also labor manualss tend to recommend removing the hub completely and using a press to install the studs ...
