Default When should i install coilovers?

I'm planning on buying Skunk2 Pro S coilovers for my 00 civic. First of all, does it matter if its colder out when i install them? Also, i checked out the DIY section, but i thought i'd get more opinions on installing them myself. Is it that hard? Or is it as simple as unbolting a couple bolts and re-bolting the new ones on? Any advice is appreciated.

When you should install them = ASAP.

It is really not as hard as you may think. A couple bolts and whatnot for both the rears and fronts. The hardest part is removing the OEM suspension/bolts.

However, make sure you research the dreaded seized rear LCA bolt and how to overcome it prior to just going in and wrenching around. The fronts are the easiest.
