    The passenger side on mine was a pain in the ass. Drivers side was easy. It didn't bother me that much.

    Yes.
    We didn't have to "destroy" anything to get the bolt out. Just slight bend and you can't even tell...

    The Billet UCA's are sealed, won't squeek and creek. That's it. You can argue that they look better for the bling factor too.

    All right, a bit of a thread revival here. I bought a pair of used Icon UCA's, Icon Rears w/ resi's and front Icon C/O's. My question is what length should I put the eye-bolts in or out to install them?! I've done some searching and emailed CST (just like Icon) and have found nothing so far. Any help? Greatly appreciated!
