I'd be inclined to have a shop install the springs on the struts for you. Spring compression can be dangerous if you screw it up and I doubt they'd charge much. Other than that, if you can operate a ratchet you can do it yourself.

I've had a shop do it before when I was just tired of dealing with the spring compressors. I think they charged $20 per spring. I don't remember. I know I only did two of them though because the back two were giving me the most trouble. You could probably call around and get a cheaper price than that. At the time I was pissed off and just wanted it done, lol.
