Default need help ASAP (no, i don't have money to go buy a helms manual)...how do i adjust the TOE settings?

My springs/shocks/camber kit came today...Progressive and Tokiko. Anyway, I'm totally broke, so I'm putting them in myself, but I'm wondering if I'll have trouble adjusting the 'TOE' after the camber kit install? Can somebody give me a step by step instruction guid? PLEASE?

take it to a shop and get them to do it, yes you can align your car yourself but it won't be nearly as exact, the shops have all the equipment to do it right. I've just been adjusting my toe by feel, if the steering feels dodgy then it's toed out if it seems hard to steer then there's too much toe in.

For a real quick fix, just use a tape measure, and measure the front, then the rear!
Don't have a tape measure in hand??? A piece of string will do!
