There is a video in this thread that gives you a quick overview on the install.
There is also an additional how-to for shocks here.
Some people tell you to cut the perforation in the carpet to get to the top of the shocks, but you don't HAVE to do that. I just pulled my carpet back and took out the rear panels to gain access.

i ended up taking off the rear side panels and pulled the carpet all the way back, for some reason i thought that the foams looked like boob implants, lmao. finally its all done up. for now till i get some lowering springs all around.
thanks for all the help.
