i recommend paying someone to do this DIY... 1st and foremost if you couldnt find the diy you are fked when it actually comes to doing the work on the car... 2nd you will run into problems, like everyone does, with that damned bolt. and you need a spring compressor... which are deadly... ask me how i know... emergency room trip, stitches later...

it will probably cost $300 for someone to install it... it cost me WELL over that to go to the ER lol

just sayin

Just use German Specs...GudNTite. It's really not that hard bro. You can look at it and basically see what needs to come out or be loosened. Plus doing it yourself, you save money in the long run. I had a problem with my system (cause of the ******* allignment shop) and luckily I could do the repairs myself. I can fully remove my rear coilovers and put them back in a little over an hour cause I've done it so many freaking times. Plus, the money you would spend on an install you could spend on a drop light, tools, jack and stands, and creeper and be set for every other install you need/want to do.
