I know mark. Removing it took me 1.5 hours. To be honest it was the tophats. They all were off, and I needed compress the spring and adjust each shock according to the one removed from my car. The first one, I had another guy holding the shock steady as I rotated it, and it took about 15 min. But I did one alone and that took a while. Then it was the whole tighten then down with the on it. It was expected for the first time on my own. I had done it before but with a friend. It was prolly me checking everything 3 or four times over to make sure everything was good and tight.

Less wind noise and better acoustics when listening to music...When I used to go topdown I would put my windows up on the fwy but leave them down around town. Just preference really. Try bumping your music with the widows down and then up while driving 70-75 mph.

I was looking into one since a friend has one in his 3 car garage in Murietta. He actually installed it himself. He was down to help me but my garage is pretty small to handle it.
