How difficult is it replace a recliner chair spring ?

Hi all,

I am being asked for £60 to replace my recliner chair spring.

My questions are where can I obtain a replacement spring, what equipment do I need to replace it and what instructions are needed to change it.

Many thanks and I hope that someone can help.

I've never done it on a recliner, but a did an ordinary armchair years ago.
It was pretty easy, tipped the chair up and removed the sacking.
At the time i got new springs from a place around the back of TJs in town.

There are a few videos on youtube.
