I did all of that about a year ago...oh what fun you're going to have. :stickoutt

The three biggest pieces of advice I can give you are 1) Use a high quality T50 Torx bit to loosen the belt tensioner. A cheap bit will round off when torque is applied and can significantly damage bolt 2) do NOT over tighten the blue plastic drain plugs or the bleeder screw, they are as fragile as they seem, and 3) Make sure to fully bleed all of the air out of the system once you've finished. It helps to have the front of the car raised a bit relative to the back when purging out the last of the trapped air.

Cant thank Dave enough (polishracing95). He did about 95% of the instal. I learned a lot and the whole job was done in about 4 hours, thats including driving back and forth to the dealership to get a sway bar link.
