Have any of you guys installed the front and rear H&R sway bar kits for the C32? How hard of an install is it? Do you need a lift, or can it be done on jacks?

You might look on the regular W203 forum as well. Several have upgraded their sways and posted hints/instructions. Buellwinkel comes to mind.

They both can be changed using jackstands. The front is easier than the rear. For the rear if you un-bolt the muffler from the car and let it hang down a bit it will be easier to fish the swaybar out from between the exhaust and the car..

Thanks for the info guys. I did the sways on the WRX in a couple hours, and these look WAY easier to do.

Jacks is do-able, but lift is MUCH easier. My mechanic changed the front and rear within 30 mins on a lift.
