Since I've had the chance to take apart my trunk (boot) twice to access the rear shocks, I've realized on my second time that you don't have to take EVERYTHING apart. Only the big tray, the thing with the tray hinges on both sides, and then you can kinda peel away the side carpets after removing the things that hold them. Don't bother taking off the carpet in the bottom of the trunk, or anything around the tail lights. Hardtop should not be a problem, I think..
Also make sure you remember how the washers are installed on the stock shocks, as installing them wrong can make a shock punch through the hole. Happened to me. Also, the first thing you should do is remove the big bolt on the bottom of the shock, to allow the suspension to fully drop down, which will make the springs install very easy with just your hands.
Don't overtighten the nuts holding the front strut assembly up (the 3 poking through the top). They strip easily
