Well.. 400 is a lot of money... I mean, a lot. I think my cousin got his installed at the local performance shop for a bit over 100 bucks... but I dunno.

It's not so hard, just gotta make sure to line everything up correctly. Specifically the top spring perches in the rear (you'll see how it lines up in the chassis) and the arrow on the top spring perch in the front (the arrow needs to line up with the steering knuckle bracket on the strut itself. Also, tighten up the upper strut mounting bolts when the car is back on the ground. That way the full weight of the car can be on the springs b4 you tighten it. And of course get it aligned as soon as you get done, that's prolly the most important of all.
