you will have to fit the top of the macpherson (sp) strut currently on the car to the top of the coilover and you should be good to go

You have to undo the centre nut when it's off the car, but would be best to have a spring tensioner tool, as if you do it without the spring tensioner tool, see you in A&E possibley.
