1. What do you want installed?
2. Why not use the K&N replacement filter in the original box, I do.

DIY. Just make sure to disconnect the ABS wires where they are attached to the brackets on the wheels BEFORE you let them hang any lower than they would while a strut is still in place. They will break. Also, after changing the springs and struts you will need a 4 wheel alignment.
