DIY header, oap replacement
I've finally decided to switch out the stock headers and oaps on my 2020 GT4 - probably for some Soul hardware.
From the photos and videos I've seen, access to all of that looks to be pretty good with the car on a lift and the wheels removed.
Is there any reason it wouldn't be a fairly straightforward DIY job?
Thanks,
Jon

very easy but get the short stubby triple squares and swivels/U joint adapter to get to the new header.
A few hours for both headers and OAP.
make sure you leave enough gap on your lift to access the side undercarriage bolts.

I watched my shop install the Soul headers & OAPs on my Spyder and it was pretty straight forward but there is not a lot of room to work on the headers so make sure you have the tools you need as Purekoryo said. Remove the rear wheels and a thousand screws holding the plastic underneath and take your time!
