there's one on the front, 4 in the middle and 1 all the way in the back. 13mm or 1/2" socket should do.

In fact this is the one I got.....just a note, it won't be a quick job to get the back bolts out, took about 20 mins for me to take them off and put them back in....so keep turning that wrench wee bit each time ![]() http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ls_o03_s00_i00

I am by no means a mechanic. What is the skill required to do this? What's the possibility of screwing things up?

Yea I need to order a flex wrench not a flexing socket wrench. The two 13mm bolts in the back could not be in a worse spot.
@Rangore, I'm 18 and by no means a mechanic at all either, doesn't seem like you need to much skill, just the right tools IMO |

I tried autozone for the flex wrench, called a custom car shop for help on the install and they're 3-4 weeks back up. So I'm going to try sears and pepboys for the tool and hopefully someone has it

sears is the place to go. you can buy the single flex head wrench for like $20 or a set for $40ish. id get the set, i've found they are the most useful tool in my box so far.
