Yep, here is the instructions for replacing the front struts and springs for your car you will need to get a front end alignment when completed but I recommend you marking the old strut adjustments before you start so you can get the new struts in the same place with will make the alignment close. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.
