Hi there has anyone replaced their front shock absorber upper bushes?

I've just been having a look around the car....it's nearing MOT time and I've noticed that both rubber bushes are cracked, so time to fix it!

Also I need to replace the shock absorber boots as they are beginning to split, so I figure I'll replace them at the same time.

The job looks simple enough, but just if anyone has any tips and also any torque values etc.

Many Thanks
