Which ones did you get? It's really a straightforward installation (not counting the removal of springs without a spring compressor)

The only problem I forsee is the taking off the stock springs...be reaaaallly careful woth those if you go and take them off without a spring compressor. Ratchet ties could do the job...but again be real careful. as far as putting them on, just put rubber O-rings which probably came with them over the shocks and make sure it's all right and tight. Don't use the bolts that should "fix" the coilover to the shock as they could damage the shocks...
