it's not too hard, i've done it several times in a parking lot. If you pull down the rear seats you'll see a bunch of plastic pins across the vertical plastic area. Pull those out with a flat-head screw driver. You might break some, but it's not a big deal. Then pull the whole plastic panel up and towards the front of the car. Before you take the top nuts loose, take the wheels off. Remove the sway bar links from the strut, you can leave them on the bar. Take off the clip holding the brake line to the strut and move it out of the way. There's 2 big bolts that hold the strut to the hub assebly. Take the nuts off, but leave the bolts in. Now you'll need to remove the 4 nuts that hold each strut to the body, they're under where the seatbelts roll up. Make sure you support the bottom of the strut before taking them off or just reach around and hold it. Knock the lower bolts out with a hammer, wiggling the strut around while hitting them may help. You should be able to pull the strut assembly out. Put the spring compressors on the spring and tighten them down SLIGHTLY. Loosen, but DO NOT remove the nut on the mount. Tighten the spring compressors until the spring is loose, then remove the nut. Take off the strut mount and remove the spring. Be careful, the springs hold up 1/4 of the car weight and can seriously injure you if it comes out of the compressors!
