follow a diy phill? i just paid to have mine installed....

save up some cash then get them installed?

i know a place that could charge like 100 to install, not bad at all considering that is what you are paying for your set.

Word of wisdom

Dont force the coilovers into place. CV boot jobs are about 2x's the cost of the coilovers being installed and all it takes is one swipe from the struts bolt fork to tear them.

That was a fun day huh jet?!
