Default Fitting lowering springs on a blobeye

Evening all,

I have had a set of H&R springs in my garage now for over 6 months and i have decided i would like to have a crack at fitting them myself. So after spending some time researching the process i have a few questions

firstly do i need to cut a section of the strut to release the brake line as opposed to disconnecting it from the caliper and then bleed all of them afterwards?

are there any settings ie; camber, toe in etc that can be altered accidently on the standard sti suspension whilst doing the work that could effect the handling.

also will i really need to have the whole car laser aligned after the process, and if so how much should i expect to pay for this


Finally is there anything important i might miss and how long should this take me.


Thanks

Remember to compress the springs before unbolting the top bolt which I forgot to do in a rush, and almost dented a rather nice aston martin 20 ft away
