if u can get ahold of some power tools it would be nice. thats where u can save some time..i just took off the nuts on the top of the strut under the hood and in the hatch area...then undid the bolt that holds the shock to the car..kicked it out and there u have it....u might have some probs with the front ones though..there is a sway bar thing u have to undo from the shock on the front ones....thats where it sucked for me....
