they SLIP OVER your struts bro. That's it...I think there's a few rubber O-rings that go inbetween the sleeve and the strut...and that's all.

Get a service manual, it tells you how to install that kind of stuff. If you have an EG civic i can even send you the service manual via a PDF file. For the slip ons, they should come with instructions and if they don't call up skunk2 and ask them where you can get instructions. For ths shock absorbers, you will have to remove the struts, compress the spring (with a spring compressor), remove the spring, install the shock, reinstall the spring, uncompress the spring, and reinstall the strut. If this is your first time doing suspension, take your time b/c suspension can be very dangerous if you don't know what you are doing. There should be a DIY on installing springs (use the search feature) and that should tell you how to remove the springs so you can install the shocks.
