open your trunk, and pull the carpet away from the sides. you'll see two towers. that's where the brace goes.

make sure you get the ones listed for your motor. I know some people had fitment issues on the 2.2 ohv because of the TB.
there's 3 bolts on each rear strut mount. one feeds through the top, the other two feed through the bottom. just have a very long extension handy. make sure all of your nuts are tight... the strut mount hardware, and the nuts on the strut bars.

I would say the ECU (the box that is attached to your passenger side strut tower) might give you problems because of the connector, but I think you should be able to push it down a bit.
I wish I could give you a definitive answer, but I have the 2.4 motor. you might search around a bit in this forum and find something. or, I bet Turbo Tech will help you out. I always hear how helpful those guys are.
