Guys how hard is it to change the rear struts in these cars? its keeping me from passing inspection although they look fine to me. Little bounce but I dont see an issue with them. Got quoted 600 bucks to change them from a local guy, screw that.

The rear struts don't use as much compression for the springs like the front. Most times you can get away without even using a spring compressor when you loosen the top nut and the springs can move somewhat freely in the strut assembly. If you put the rear on jack stands you can do the job pretty quick.
