Default S40 Camshaft pulley help near abilene, tx

I just had a shop here in Abilene do my timing belt and water pump. However while changing it out they found out that the camshaft pulley was leaking oil. They ordered a new pulley but then called and said they couldnt replace it because they lacked the special camshaft tool for vvt. Does anyone know of a good reliable cheap shop that can replace this pulley for me? I have the pulley already but just need it put on. Please let me know. THX.

You can buy the locking tool for $65 here:

Camshaft Cylinder Head Timing Alignment Locking Tool Fits Volvo on Sale | eBay

The more expensive kits have extra parts used for pulling the head off, but this is really all you need. Maybe you can even go halvsies with the shop and let them keep it?
