I'm getting ready to drop my Honda Civic and it's the first time I've done that, is there any online "instructions" for this, or is it all just a common sense install. Any suggestions would be cool.

jack the car up. Put it in jack stands. get coil compressers and compress one spring at a time after removing the wheel. remove upper and lower control arms and anything attached to the strut then pop the hood (or pop it first, just do this step last) remove the bolts holding the strut and have a friend not let it hit the ground or possibly do it yourself. Line everything back up and reassemble in the same fashion. Thats a quick, quick over view.It's not hard.
