You need an open socket set in order to get the hex key through the socket to remove the top hats while they're compressed by the spring compressors. That's the hardest part. It helps if you have a friend to put the nut on the top hat of the new coilover while you are pushing down on the coils. Everything else is just a direct swap and connect back/torque. Also make sure you torque your lower control arm bolts when the car is actually on the ground and not raised.
Follow the DIY guide in the DIY section for a coilover/spring install. It will help drastically if this is your first time, and give yourself a good amount of time to do this as well.
