Yup, because my Camaro is an early 2011 and did not have the pre-drilled holes for the strut tower. If it did have the pre-drilled holes I would have been able to do it, basically just put in 6 threaded bolts and tighten them up. To make the strut tower fit on the early 2011's you also had to buy an adapter kit and then drill the holes. I am disabled and that is a task that I physically can't do. I wish I could do things like this because there are many other things I would like to do, but it gets costly having to pay to have everything done. I have been going to this dealer now for about 12 years, I trust them with my car and they have always been great to me. I read many horror stories here about dealers and it is to bad there are not more dealers like this one.
