It would have been much easier if the instructions weren't so bloody poor...tiny little diagrams. Plastic protection plates above the engine have to come off and the rectifier has to be unscrewed and moved to one side.
You'll need a drift to tap the original bolts out and to help put the new ones in. The torquing up is a nightmare for one person because you can't see both sides of the engine at the same time, and the bolt heads / nuts are tricky to get to. We had to use flexible knuckles on the sockets to get in. It's ok as long as you have plenty of time, patience and can't think your way around problems. It seems that there are other bars that are easier to fit from other comments on here, however I'm slightly sceptical as they'll be using the same fixing points I would have thought.
Good luck. P
