When I did the coilovers on my friends MK2 was real easy, took just over an hour! Only thing that we struggled on was the nuts on the front dampers, had to pop down my mates garage and get an impact gun on them!

Love that BBM.

Get used to the ride, mine was fully polybushed on JOM's, bouncy as fuck.
Try getting some MK3 leathers for it, they fit with a bit of welding

It's not bouncy all the time, just when it bounces off a pot hole.
