To do it right and safely, you'll need a spring compressor and tie-rod separator. Use this style rather the a pickle fork type:

You'll need a jack and jack stands, a torque wrench, various metric sockets, metric wrenches and and allen key(for the top of the strut, dont remember the size) Also you need a way to hold up the front steering knuckle once you get the strut out. I used some twine.
You can buy all of the tools at most decent parts store. Sorry I cant give you the exact sizes of the sockets and wrenches...
