They will bolt directly up. If they have the hinges still attached, use a jackstand under your door to support the door as your putting it on and off. Other than that, it's pretty simple stuff. Just getting the the back bolts are a pain, but can be done with a small ratched or a ratchet wrench if you have one. 13mm and 15mm are needed (I'm in the middle of doing mine right now, hahaha, so i can tell you right now what you need)
Good luck!

Should bolt right on - doors are all the same. You're gona need to make a holder (wood) and attach it to a jack (a tranny jack or motorcyle jack works well if you have).

My best suggestion - get new pins, bushings, rollers installed NOW - much easier on a door that's not on the car.
