Default abs wheel sensor, install + availability q's

So, my abs light came on while driving around today. I jumped the connector, and read the code, and found it to be front right wheel sensor from the Helm's manual. I didn't have time to go through the flow chart checking resistances, so I just assumed it's the sensor. It's on a 93 vtec, so I assumed that with an 11 year old car these sensors will go bad.

I'm wondering if this is something I should attempt myself, or pay someone else to do?

I went to majestic honda's website looking for a part number and price but came up with nothing. So if you think I can/should play with the abs, where can I get this part (besides the local Honda store, I don't like dealing with them)?

Thanks in advance. And I did search, which told me the stealership shouldn't charge me more than $300 for the sensor and labor.

So, is it safe to assume that this should fix should be left to teh hands of a dealer?

Hmmm, I hope that doesn't happen to me. I still need to get my hands on a multi-meter to check the continuity of the wiring. I hope a broken wire or out of position sensor is the real problem, those are virtually free to fix.
