Support the car on jackstands, unbolt the swaybar endlinks with suspension at full droop, unbolt swaybar from the subframe, replace bushings.
Installation is reverse of removal.
Google "Honda Hookup Manual", sign up, and download the Helm's in PDF format. The Helms is your single best resource.

Might I suggest if you're going to be doing this, you might as well do an ITR rear sway? Directions are similar to what 2001TEGGSR posted, but with just a few additional steps. Totally worth it.

I wouldn't recomed this without the ASR brace or some other form of subframe reinforcement.

Yep, didn't mention it, but it is kind of a given, since it's difficult to mount the brackets without the aftermarket kits. I had the BSQ kit and it worked real well for 3 years. Beaks is another option, too.

There are like 2 bolts on each supporting bracket holding the bar to the body. Just unbolt those and take the bushings out. Thats it. If you want just put a little body grease on the bushings before you put them in.
