The feedback I've had has been very positive.
No you don't need to change anything else although it is worth checking around while fitting. The coilovers come with all the brackets and fittings.
No you don't need a specialist to set them up.
The ride height can be adjusted to what it was originally and the shock setting adjusted by going out and trying.
There is setup info in the instructions.

I have fitted these on the rear of my 350 and the improvement was dramatic (think the old ones were ********). Had no trouble fitting them although the ride height was a bit odd afterwards. Steve provided different brackets and all is now well.

Steve’s service was exceptional including a home visit to see the ride height issue.

Highly recommended

If I say yes then no-one will buy anything for the next three months and I'll be out on the streets with a begging bowl and a sign saying "Give generously... TVRs to support".
If I say no then a tradition will have been broken and I can see an unruly mob descending on me...

So the answer is yes. And I'll be doing tankards (with a different design) as well.
