What he means is the little "bumps" on the coilovers.... They are called threads like a screw.

Good stuff! You can't go too far down or you'll fubar the shock. I think it's like leave a 30mm gap in front and 80mm out back... between the, lowest perch and middle one.

Oh and it's about a 45minute install... try and do it yourself, you'll save a lot of money. And if you do have someone install it don't let themn charge you over a hundred dollars.

All you really need is a metric ratchet set and a hammer or rubber mallet. If you own a car you should have those at all times anyway.

No need for spring compressor.

If they're doing an alignment also then ~200. Too bad you're not local, i'd install it for like $50. Should be able to get an alignment (which includes camber adjustment) for around 75.
