i would of had pictures of an install since ive been doing for almost a couple years now. its not really that hard, just make sure you dont strip any bolts. you purchased these ra from a member that just recently sold his right?
i would like to see before and after pictures of the car if thats possible.
also, does the RA or any tein require using anything from the stock struts? ie: koni yellows use the bottom cup mounts and the top hat.

i will post pics if i can ever get home when there is still some sort of sunlight outside, it gets dark so early and i don't have any way to light it up at my house.
and the teins come ready to go right out of the box. just remove your old supension and then pop these in.

You do need to reuse your factory nuts and bolts...the 17mm bolt (one at the bottom of each strut) and the 14mm nuts on the top of each strut (2 on each).
Note also that the top bolts on the RA's are significantly longer than the ones on your stock struts, so you'll need an 1 1/2 deep 14mm socket to get to it. BUT not too deep of a socket, otherwise you can't fit it under the fuel lines in the rear to put on the driver side rear coilover.
