There is a step by step how to on this forums with pics. It suggests though that you should cut your bump stops, which most people I think would tell you otherwise.

wtf? its hard to read this ****/.

any ways $250 to install them, do that yourself and learn something and save some money, instead of paying them for labor up the ass and shop supplies.

I did mine myself for the first time never stripped my struts took almost 2.5 hours but you got to take your time get a buddy if you need extra assistance. its really not hard once you read a simple "how to" any my alignment was $80
