Squier neck swap question

Hey guys. I have the opportunity to pick up a Squier Classic 60's Jazz for cheap. It just so happens I have a 2003 Fender Am Standard neck laying around. Complete with tuners, and the neck plate with screws. If I wanted to put this neck on this bass, would it be an easy swap? Has anyone done it? I have a 62 Reissue Jazz with a rosewood fretboard already, and I figured I'd take off the semi beat up Squier neck and throw on a great feeling Maple fretboard Am Standard neck. Thoughts? Tips? Pics? Guides? Do's and don't? I'll only do it if its an easy drop in type situation.

Thanks
 
Yup I figured it would be an easy swap. I've seen the mods on here before. What I was looking for was more of the real world experience response and you gave it to me! Thanks!

If theres anyone here that has done this EXACT mod and wants to chime in, please do!
