I put mines on with the help of my friend w/out instructions. But he has installed a lot of springs and coilovers, so he had an idea what he was doing.

BTW, you CAN NOT install your springs without a spring compressor. Unless you bench press like 600 lbs.

You have to go into the trunk and unsnap all that plastic gaurd stuff. Hope that helped you problem.

In other words, you have to fold the seats down. I started with the plastic cover behind the seats, then worked my way down layer by layer. You can't take the last layer fully off, so you will have to unscrew the bolts while that plastic cover is scratching your arm. , but it's not too bad.

BTW, the rear strut is a bitch. There is this one bolt after you pull off the rear drum that is gauranteed to take you 20mins to get off. Well at least w/mines and the ppl I have spoken too. Hopefully yours isn't too rusted.
