Default installing coilovers audi a4

I have a 2001 audi a4 quattro and just orderd my coilovers and was wondering if installing them is a task i want to undertake. I am no pro but have some skill and normal tools. can anyone tell me if this is a hard task to do replacing my shocks it seams the front only have two connections but the rear seem more complicated? If you know of any sights that take you thru the process of replacing them.

its not that bad just make sure that you have some time do it. and get a buddy becuase thats the best tool when you get tire or wacking at a bolt for an hour or 2 its nice when they step in and get it out in 2 hits[:@]. o ya and make sure you have a good set of spring compressors becuase it sucks when they break
