If you honestly dont know how to install it, i would try to find someone local to show you how its done. A strut bar is one of the easier parts to install, so i take it you havn't really worked with handtools before.
Dong get me wrong, i'm not knockin you. gotta start somewhere

True what Rio Ninja said, but hey might as well give it a shot, it's not that hard. Open up your hood, look at the two shock towers, take off the two nuts on each one and place the mounts over the bolts, then put the nuts back on, and tighten them snug. Then attach the bar to the mounts.

If your rex is a DPI, it may not be that simple, I just got a cheap front strut tower bar for my civic, and it doesn't clear the factory Intake. So I made my own intake out of some ABS pipe I got from a plumbing supply store.

I IM'd him about it. He has an Si and knew how to install it. He was just trying to make sure that he was going to do it correctly.
