Eibach Information needed

hey guys....new to these boards and i need some help. I recently purchased the eibach pro kit and the directions are worthless. I have done a search here to find any installation pictures or directions and i found nothing. If someone can be so kind to either give me a quick rundown or scan helms manual for spring removal that would be great. I will be attempting to do the install with a friend. Also...do you need a compresion machine or are the springs short enough?
So if anyone has some record pictures of the install that would be great. Thanks a head of time guys. Sorry for the Noob questions.

I don't have detailed instructions, but I'm sure they're somewhere on this site.

However, some key points:

For the front spings you will need a spring compressor (simple little high torque screw clamp...borrow one for free at AutoZone).

To remove the back spings, you'll have to take out the rear seat bench.

Good luck.

Does your Dad have a set of "awesome tools"



Seriously, you can save from $100-200 by installing them yourself. Lung Fu Mo Shi gave you a good summary in his post. Some others on the board have done the install in their own garage as well. Just do not go to the dealer and get ripped.

I know that you can rent tools In The Zone if you are not equipped too.
