Koni installation DIY

I recently installed Goldlines on my car. My rear OEM shocks are blown in 2 weeks, so now I'm in the market for a set of new shocks. I'm thinking about getting Koni shocks. I installed the Goldlines myself, so I'll probably install the Konis myself too. From looking at the Koni DIY, it doesn't look like it's an easy job. Has anyone done the installation? Is this something I can tackle? Or should I take to a shop and do it?

the DIY is basically the same as installing springs except for extra steps in the front...
all you do is cut the front strut in half(bartkat used a pipe cutter to make a nice clean cut), put the insert in and bolt it down to the stock housing(this is all simplified of course). it shouldnt be too hard. but ya ask bartkat he's done it a couple times i think. or if you want, he'll do it for you, for a fee of course.
