Tools Needed: 1. Lift, or Jack and Jack stands
2. Basic metric socket set, I used the one in my autox trailer
3. Pliers, I used channel locks and slip joint pliers.
4. Slotted screwdriver
5. Work gloves
Step 1: A) Remove the spare tire
This is quite simple in these cars as you just follow the instructions located on the board you lift up to gain access to the spare tire compartment.
Step 2: A)Put car on lift or on level ground and on jack stands
Step 3: A) remove the rear sway bar using a 13mm socket/wratchet and 13mm wrench. There are 6 bolts in total holding them in place. NOTE: The lower sway bar mounts are wearable items, if they appear to be worn now would be the time to replace them.
B) Use the slotted screwdriver to remove the upper mounting tabs as they will most likely be stuck to the bushing.
C) Remove the sway bar and set on floor.
Its quite a difference as compared to stock.
