This product was very easy to install. My Saturn Vue's liftgate would not stay up on its own anymore and I was concerned I would have to spend a lot of money to have it professionally repaired. Fortunately, I did some research first and it looked easy to do. You need two people to do the job-one to hold up the liftgate while the other pops out the old ones and inserts the new ones. All that is needed it a flat-head screwdriver to pry open the metal clamp that secures the lift support to the car. It took 15 minutes. And now the liftgate works as good as when I first got the car.
