Really is a piece of piss mate,

Think somebody even did a guide on it once. Get under the car. The brace only fits in one place. Remove one nut, slot brace over, replace nut. Remove other nut, slot other end of brace over. Tighten both nuts.

will it fit on easy or will you have to strech it onto 2nd side because my top strut i tightend the bit to pull it tight and i noticed this lower strut is just all one piece with no way of tightening it anymore.

iirc you have to do the drivers side first, then the other side. It's easy though. Bolt on/off task.
