I installed my headers last spring onto my LG4. A word of advice is to take your time. Use jackstands if you have them or ramps, with wheel chocks of course, otherwise you'll never get them on! You will have to pull the air cond assembly off to get to the bolts, fun fun! Also the brace connects the steering pump. I just kept all of my bolts in marked jars for reassembly.The driver's side is easier because there is less clutter. Remember to take out your spark plugs! The passenger side is a little more challenging with the starter and all. You will find that rocking the header a little will allow it to fall into place. Other than the tight fit I didn't need to pull the motor. Good luck!

You dont have to take you A/C assembly off and you wont have to take you plugs off. Mine slipped in very easily. I had to use a lot of pressure on the passanger side one but it was easy. YOu can get to the bolt no problem but on the passanger side you'll probably have to get em from underneath the car.
