I had the camber arms installed at the shop because they did an alignment right after, so what the heck. But they aren't too hard, they have 1 bolt on each end, end of story.
As chilton would write it :
A) Remove existing bolts
B) Remove existing arm
C) Install is reverse of removal...

wouldnt the tein S TECH springs not cause any camber issues? it gives you a decent drop, and stays below the .8" drop that will cause the camber issues.
TEIN S-TECH SPRINGS
Spring rate: Front 386lbs Rear 402lbs
Lowers: Front -0.7" Rear -0.6"

For the rears, no, you shouldn't have to. But they did because I was having the tires rotated, etc anyway. You can reach it from behind/below the car, but could be more cumbersome than necessary.
For the fronts, most definetly. Tires, struts had to be loosened, strut bar, etc just to get to those two bolts...

You have one now.
The rear toe adjustment on the car is a bolt with a washer that is "offset": it is wider on one side than the other. As you turn it, that offset pushes the arm in or out, by a few milimiters.
A larger cam bolt will have a larger offset, thus allowing more adjustment. The ones I got have a -3 to +3 adjustment.
I got mine from here :
Import Auto Parts Direct
Note that they sell a kit with camber and toe. If you email them they sell you the Toe bolts alone.
The larger Toe bolts do require that you enlarge the hole on the arm where they go. Instructions and template are included with the bolts.
