for the where bit: do an internet search, try ebay or sharkracing.

for the how bit:
1- with the car level on the street surface, remove the 3 brace bolts on the top of each strut
2- install both strut bar braces
3- adjust the bar width so that it fits both braces without pushing/pulling the braces.
4- tighten every thing up.
5- enjoy

I don't have to jack the car up??? Torque the strut braces back on??? That's it?

nope no jacking up the car. just unbolt, put strut bar in place, and bolt back up. i would suggest though to only unbolt one side at a time just to be that more cautious. and don't forget to put bricks behind the tires to make sure it doesn't roll at all.
