Just do em yourself brit, seriously easy. Would be a shame to take a loss on the springs you wanted just because they've been sitting in your trunk.

the thing is.. the back two springs have the struts on them. totally clueless. and i would follow the "how to" on spring installation but i know nothing about putting struts on. and 06cobaltls says a few weeks.. might end up putting them on and just spending the day on them this weekend.

Damn I didn't realize you had the whole struts assembled for the front, you can seriously do this in....under an hour by yourself by braille.
Jack front of car at the center of the lower radiator support, support with jack stands, remove front left wheel, disconnect ABS sensor near lower strut bolts, remove nuts from lower strut bolts and swaybar connecting rod nut, support lower steering knuckle pivot point with jack lightly, use BFH to remove both lower strut bolts, ensure steering knuckle doesn't fall away from motor, remove 3 top strut nuts, remove strut. Reassemble in reverse order and repeat on right side. Drop front of car.

Jack rear of car by torsion bar, support rear of car at swingarm attachment points, remove top shock bolt on both sides, pull swing arm down slightly until you can pull springs out, install new springs, put shock bolt back in, drop car.

Cake :D
