I'm not sure what the difference is between regular and premium cars. I don't have a sedan. I've just read the premium is an easy fix. The key is you need to be able to access the top of the rear shocks to screw on the extension. However you can do with your car?? Do the rear seats move or recline? Hopefully someone will chime in with a prem sedan.

I was thinking of dropping the rear shocks today to adjust them BUT if it means I only have to drop them once to install these extensions I'd rather do that instead of dropping them over and over to find the right setting.
Also, keep in mind the seller I bought the shocks from did not give me any adjusting key at all. Will I have to order them too (pink part on top of the extensions shown on page one) or are they part of the extensions everyone's talking about?

I'd like to know as well. I have a premium sports model coupe and would like to order these extensions.

You'll also need the adjusting tool for the fronts which won't have the extensions. The person you bought these from should have supplied it.
For the coupes you need to drill an existing hole a little larger, from below into the rear deck. The hole comes very close to the child seat anchor covers on the rear deck. The extensions get fished up under the anchor covers. Flip down the seat, remove the covers and adjust your Dspecs.
The DIY here explains it well.
