get a spring compressor and compress the spring, take the nut off the top then fit topmount then put the nut back on, release tension from the spring compressors.
PS dont use mole grips to hold the piston on the back cos it will void your warranty.

The top one, keep the spring plate on.

make sure u apply some grease to the adjustment threads to keep help avoid corrosion. I know it looks ugly but its worth it.
