just pull the rear strut covers off and undo the nut off the top of the strut. i think you need a 5mm allen wrench and a 12mm wrench for the install. undo the nut and put the bar on and retighten the nut back down and its all finished.

Don't forget the allen key if you're using the stock suspension. VERY important, as you can snap your springs if it goes wrong. (Has happened to a mates friend) I remember seeing pics somewhere of how to do it. I'll try find them.

EDIT

Found.
