HELPED A MATE PUT KONIS INTO HIS ROLLA ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TO BUY THE KONI INSERTS, DRILL A HOLE IN THE END OF THE STRUT (TO ALLOW OIL TO DRAIN OUT AND TO BOLT IN THE INSERT), GET YOURSELF A METAL DROPSAW AND CUT THE STRUT TUBES, INSERT THE INSERTS, WACK WITH A REALY BIG HAMMER, BOLT THE INSERT THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF THE STRUT THROUGH HOLE YOU DRILLED, THEN BOLT BACK INTO THE CAR.
EASY, ALL INSTRUCTIONS COME WITH THE SHOCKS AND IT TOOK US 2 HOURS TO DO ALL 4.
HOPE THAT HELPS.

That's all well and good for and AE92 or import AE101... you'll find your got monroes in the AE101 and inserts koni's will not fit, That I'm 100% sure of as I had this problem. The way around them is go down to an importer and get the imported struts, which are KYB's or if your willing to wait a few weeks I'll have a set Fronts and Rears available. We end up in the first one using AE92 front struts and Camry SV21 rears. The rears I had to make an insert to stop the insert flapping around on the inside, it was a real bastard, and at the time ('95) no had tried konis in them.
