It's easier changing everything than just changing the springs if that makes sense. So if your doing the whole lot it's simply unbolt old shocks with springs still inside then slide in new shocks and bolt back up. I would however recommend you have you car tracked afterwards.

You'll be fine mate it's a simple enough mod to do. It really is basically unbolt and bolt back on... I would recommend renewing the bushes at the same time....

The best think to do to lower your polo is fit a set of coilovers, I used to have a 98' polo 16v and i fitted a set of FK Coilovers to mine, it looked amazing and handled like a go-kart, pick up a copy of performance vw magazine and look at the adverts. Coilovers is the only way mate!
