You have to cut the front struts open and insert the cartridge and bolt it from the bottom of the strut housing. Its not that hard to do if you have the right tools. The rears shocks are just a remove and replace job. I did mine by myself taking my time and it took 8 hours, but I used a hacksaw with fresh blades to cut the front strut cuz I didnt want to spend 25 bucks on a pipe cutter.
About the ride. At the softest setting its just a small amount firmer then stock, but your cornering speed and control will increase. It was awesome the first time I took an off ramp and my car was basically flat in the turn. Make it firmer and the ride gets harsher, but you'll corner like a real sports car heh.
