U dont need a ramp, just a allen key (sorry cant remember the size) to undo the bolt or bolts at the back / underneath (obviously!) - its the only 2 bolts there so you cant really miss them? Screws onto the subframe.

2 minute job !

There are 2 bigger bolts in the middle of the diffuser, the bit that is angled up, they fit there. I would put the washer after the towing eye between the bolt head and the tow eye.

it looked like the washer wouldnt go on when it was

car/toe eye/washer/bolt

so i put it on as

car/washer/toe eye/bolt

but that was without reading this :S

It'll still work. Just check it stays tight now and again.

We'll have you changing your own brake pads soon!
