They are easier to get to if you jack it up and remove the wheel. Put a jack stand under the knuckle.

Rears are almost as easy as the fronts.
Grab your toolbox and get dirty.

A set of metric sockets, ratchets and extensions. Might need a breaker bar for the bolt on bottom of the shock, I just used an impact wrench and WD 40. The top comes out with the removal of the plate from under the car (not from inside the car). Remove plate and shock together, then transfer support plate to new shock.
