Default Will the new Tein CS with EDFC fit on a 00 LS400?

I have a 00 LS400 and I want to get the Tein CS with EDFC. Does anyone have this installed in their LS? Also, how hard is it to install the CS with EDFC? If a shop can install OE stuff, will they be able to install this with no problems? Any shops you guys go to for this install in the NYC area? Thanks

its going to be as hard as any other sping/shock install except u dont have to compress the stprings to change shocks.

for fitment, i know that Tein is making a CS (new) for the LS and it will be cheaper than the old ones but for specs call either carson or tmengineering.

They do install them but when I asked about the EDFC, they asked me about the wiring and it seems like they don't wanna do the wiring. How much does a install like that cost?

What wiring?
It uses 4 cables to each strut from teh controller.
It is harness plugs and power and ground nothing else,.

What about the EDFC unit? That goes inside the car and there's gotta be wires going to the unit right?

That is what i said
the 4 units have a harness to the controller which has basic power and ground hook ups.
The controller is the only part that has to be wired in the other just need to have the wire go from each shock to the controller.

Is it hard to wire each of the shocks to the controller? I don't think the shop I go to ever installed a EDFC unit before.

Anyone know of a shop that does this install in the NYC area?
