Quite literally that easy. The only tricky bit is that there isn't much room to swing a spanner round and the bolts were just a little bit too long for me to use a socket on.
Apart from that it was a doddle. Now that I've done about 15 / 20 miles with it on I'm going to recheck the bolts for my piece of mind and to see if there is any slack in them, but I doubt it and as it was all tight before I set off.
Just make sure everything is nice and tight.

The bolts should be torqued to 49 Nm Kelk - nice brace

You would need some deep sockets and a torque wrench - the best way to do it with your sturt brace would be to remove the bar and torque the suspension bolts first. Then attach the bar again.
Not sure if I am gonna make it tomorrow - depends on the weather. I am praying that the weather is good for the surrey meet.

Spoon one looks way better.

And probably costs a kidney and does it do that better a job for the money? And do you get all the extra costs utilisation with your driving?
