The rear spring is very straight forward, the front is a bit of a pain (you'll neet to disconnect the upper A-arm from their mounts, etc.)

I recently changed the front spring out on my coupe because one of the ride height bolts seized. I took about 2.5 hrs total. Looks intimidating, but isn’t. Front end alignment afterward is suggested.
