Yes, and potentially dangerous. Better to have a shop do it if you're not familiar with cars (you'll need a spring compressor if just replacing the shock, but an impact wrench is a must whether your replacing the shock or the whole strut). However, the service manuals for Hyundai can be found on line at http://www.hmaservice.com/webtech/ Click on the "shop" tab, choose your car and find the information you are looking for.

above your rear foglight switchgear panel.. I am working on a 1997 Hyundai Accent at the moment. The connector for the OBDII is located on the left side of the dash. It is tough to see because it is facing down... recessed inside the cutout for the foglamps... at the top.
if it is anything like my 2006 Hyundai accent then you have take take off the black trim around the stero.. there are about 6 places where you need to pry. the corners and the middle areas. kind of tough to get off but just keep pulling. you wont break anything. just pull hard. after that is off all you have to do is unscrew the srews
It's a tough one but yes, I'm going to have to with Jamaican
Replacing front struts can be challenging, especially for those without mechanical experience. It typically involves lifting the vehicle, removing the wheel, and disconnecting various components, which may require special tools. Additionally, proper alignment is crucial after installation, making it important to have some mechanical knowledge or seek professional help. Overall, while it can be done as a DIY project, it may be tough for beginners.
he is a hot southern soldier and is tough and controls emotions and he has an accent !

Brick Top in the movie "Snatch" uses a London accent known as Cockney. This accent is associated with working-class Londoners and is characterized by its distinctive pronunciation and vocabulary. Brick Top's accent helps to establish his tough and menacing character in the film.
Not difficult.
Hmm - either Toyota Matrix or Hyundai Excel, not a combination of the two. Nevertheless, the air filter is probably located under the hood in a black canister with a few clips holding the lid on. Open the canister, pull off the old filter, put in the new one. It's pretty tough to muck it up too badly.
I have a Contour as such. I always did all the maintenance on my cars. The Ford Contour is a total engineering failure. Your problems are just getting started. This car is such a tough one to fix. The engine runs too hot, coil springs are always breaking, electronic bugs, and the transmission will slip around 180 000 km. Most cars I work on, I could replace the front struts in a few minutes. It's been ten hours on the Contour. This is not a Ferrari, it's not worth the effort. Just get yourself a nice, used Toyota. In the mean time, you can drive with your suspension as it is, for several months. if it took you ten hours you need to give up on the do it yourself approach I can do all 4 struts in about 2hours LOL
I am half way through mine. Tough, tough, tough. I would have gladly paid someone to do this while I sipped coffee and complained about the price...
It is a tough job and requires the removal of the hub in most cases which unfortunately requires the removal of a lot of other suspension components in most cases also as the Hyundai's tend to seize up from rust and corrosion.
