^ I highly recommend you get Rhino Ramps. If one of those jacks slips out while you're under the car... game over.

Or Jack Stands at least, and place your removed tire under the edge of body for extra safety.

Don't let the dealer install this unless they are doing it for free...it takes like 5 mins to put on...its easy...
1. disconnect battery
2. pull the covers off the steering wheel with a flat head screwdriver
3. unscrew the torx screws (T30) on both sides
4. pull steering wheel control plugs and airbag plugs
5. screw on the damper
6. put it all back togeather...
