How to install lower springs on your C300?

I am looking to lower my c300 with H&R Super Sports and i kinda wanted to do this myself. I was wondering if there was a previous post about it but can anyone help me with step by step how to lower c300s. Thank you so much.

its different if you have a 4matic or a RWD, but the theory is the same. If you search there are some pics from guys that had theirs done, I have seen them many months ago. Cant say I have seen a DIY thread, but its pretty straight forward if you have ever done springs before

remove shock/strut/spring assembly from your car

remove springs from shock/strut with a spring compressor (you can rent these from autozone)

put new springs on shock/strut using the spring compressor make sure everything bolted on right

then reinstall to car

Thanks a lot Jimmy and ulovemybenzo. Probably get started on it next weekend. Never done springs before, so we'll see how it goes. Thanks again
