Literally an unbolt-bolt operation. The only hang up is getting the strut cartriges apart on the front. Need a BIG adjustable wrench, or slipjaw pliers and a vice

Rear, you need to take out the plastic bits that cover the wheel well to get access to the upper shock bolt.

Feds is right on, the hardest part is dealing with the strut inserts. The rest is a piece of cake. Make sure you have a set of spring compressors for the front though. The back is easy to do without, but you need compressors to do the front.
