no probs mate tbh its not that bad a job to do just make sure you fit a new input shaft seal/bearing at the same time, also worth changeing the driveshaft seals while your at it.
has your got the dreaded judder ???

You really don't need a French car specialist to fit a clutch on a 180. Any independent garage should be capable of doing what is a straight forward job.
