Camber plates, which spring sets need those? H&R or Eibach?

Not sure about H&R but I know that you don't need them when using Eibach.

So did I. When I took it to get the car aligned and have the camber bolt adjustment done, the guy said "nope... you don't need them, it's just fine". I still have them sitting in my garage.

I took mine to a little auto repair shop and all they used was a spring compressor. The only thing I would say is that care should be taken doing the front ones to line up the markings on the upper spring seat with the outer side of the vehicle. (The guys didn't do that on one side which caused a "clunk" sound when I turned the steering wheel.Had them fix it the next day). Also, the rear is a little messy because you have to remove the paneling in the trunk (or at least loosen it and peel it away). It costed $150 for all four.

Peace...
