Easy - did mine when I added the black mirrors also.

Don't forget to use a cardboard shim on the brake side.

jcd,
It's really easy to pull and replace those levers. The hardest part for me was getting the c clips off without sctatching anything. They make a tool to do it, like a reverse needle nose with bent ends, but I didn't have one. I loosened the adjuster on the clutch cable to get the lever off, and made sure not to break the brake light button on the inside under the fluid resevoir.
