    Installed the KW V2's today

    Took me about 4 hours from start to finish. Pretty straght forward process. The rear took me a lot longer than the front. It lowered the car about two inches as advertised. Car handles really good now in the corners.

    You need the rubber mount off the stock strut to mount on the new coil over. That's the only stock part that is re-used short of nuts & bolts.

    I did take the shaft covers off the rear shocks and installed them on the KW's to protect the shock shafts. Its not mentioned in the instructions however.

    did you have to take apart the stock suspension setup too, or just put the kws together? on my ta you had to reuse a top rubber mount so you had the take the stockers apart too.
