Time to fit my coilovers...DONE!! pics included

[mrvillicus]

My coilovers should be delivered today so Im just researching how to fit them, my n/s pinch bolt is seized so I want to try and fit them without having to remove the pinch bolts, has anyone actually managed to do this, surely its just a matter of removing the bottom of the shock, then removing the top plate?

Any tips on making it as easy as poss? setting the coilovers up etc?

Thanks, Ben
