I have the same set up very nice. take your time. what I had to do is. driver side remove alternator drop right in from top. passenger side remove starter loosen motor mount raise engine just a little right in from the bottom. I had to loosen the motor mount because of the a/c cooling line thats on the frame rail could not get by it fought it for hours. If you did it like I did should take about 5-6 hours took me twelve trying to figure it out. they sound great with the ti ex. my car is an 03 zo6
