Yikes. I bought the MO30 Sway bars, and now that the car is out of warranty and the weather is nice I thought I would start moving towards installing them. I thought it would be unpleasant work, but doable. After reading the DIYs, I am completely intimidated and believe it to be out of my league. How naive of me!

Drat.

It's totally doable. Go for it!

Just remove the wheel,remove the sway bar nut,loosen the sway bar bushings and replace it with your 030 bars.

Oh, thanks for your comment! That's what I envisioned. I guess its when you also replace shocks and springs that things get tricky? Whew. I am going to take another look.
