If you want to do it yourself, definitely check the torque specs as Brooksie suggests. They are pretty low.
I didn't find any of my seals adhered with any adhesive. My rubber bolt bushings came right up. It took a little work to get the cam cover off. I used a rubber mallet to LIGHTLY tap around and after a while, it broke loose.
I zip-tied all of my cables up and out of the way. The new cover goes in most easily from the right. I tried using some gasket sealer to adhere the OEM gasket (came out with no damage, yours should as well) to the top of the new chrome cover, but that didn't work too well. It kept falling out during the manuvering process. I finally just put it down on top of the head, and put the cover over and tightened down. Haven't had a leak in one season of riding. When I do it again for valve clearance adjustment, I'll use some gasket sealer to keep the gasket on the head.
