Default Daizen Sway Bars Almost installed - need a little help

I recieved my daizen sway bars and coilovers last night. First thing i did was jack up my car and start installing them. Front went well - took out oem sway bar and installed the daizen one with no problems. Everything fit in like the oem one.

Now the rear is where i got stuck. I took off the exhaust, the rear braces, slid out the oem rear sway bar and tried to install the daizen one. First thing that came to my mind..."IT doesn't fit."

My initial problem was that i was a fool to think i could do the install without any intructions (bought them used so i did not have any). Ive read a few posts in regards to this install and now have realized that i need to switch the rear oem end links. I have a question in regards to this: Do i switch the left and right side or do can I turn them around. Additionally, is there anything i need to do special for the fronts. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Try the link above, there are some pics.
I recommend using marine grade grease to prevent any issues from water and so forth. It seems to last longer as well.

Sorry, I just updated the pics in that thread. I changed servers a while back so many pics in some threads no longer show up until requested.

I also looked for instructions to install the tein cs coilovers, but was unsuccessful. Any recommendation of where i can get instruction from (that are in english). I plan on doing these installs myself as there is no good shop in Minneapolis that works on "high end" imports. My brother and I usually work on these things and come out successful...just takes some time.

Regards,

I love the sound the intake makes. unfortunately, i think it is causing my check engine light to go off (engine code 0440). Cant figure that out. I installed the sway bars and have noticed a significant difference in the handling. The sc finally is feeling like a sports car. I plan on installing the coilovers this week. Ill let you know what i think about the car then...but my guess is that ill love it.
