Just wondering how difficult it is and could I do it myself?

If fitting shorter springs also worth fitting new shocks to match.
full kit here, I've just fitted it to my Mk1 scirocco but it's not as low as I would of liked but it should settle down over a few weeks.
Also worth getting some new top mounts and change them at the same time.

Remember also, if your car has a load proportioning valve for the rear brakes, this will need an adjustment for the lowering too.
