Hey all, need some advice. Just got the H&R coils and am deciding whether I should attempt the install myself or have someone do it for me. I would like to save the install money if I can. I believe I have all tools necessary. Jack, jack stands, torque wrench etc. I also can "rent" a spring compressor from the local auto store for $50 and then get the money back when I am done. Any advice for me? The kit didn't come with any specific instructions so I am a bit hesitant...

You should be fine. It's not hard at all.

I did my H&R OE Sports myself and after doing that I wish I paid someone haha. Also don't use an impact wrench to do the strut nut when tightening.

This.
Though this can be a do-it-yourself job, it will take time and a little frustration (I even had access to a lift).
If I had to do it again, I'd pay the labor.
