Make sure you have, or rent, the proper compression tool, (if you didn't buy the complete strut [non-permissible content removed]'y) and be careful with proper vehicle safety. Don't know much about TRQ but A1 Auto sells them, so they might be okay.
Same issue here, but i am not sure if i understand what`s the difference between shocks and struts.

Then you definitely shouldn't attempt replacement, yourself
The difference between shocks and struts is that a strut is a structural part of the vehicles suspension system. A strut is also crucial part of the vehicles steering system and greatly affects alignment angles and also a pivot point for the vehicles steering system. The strut contains a coil spring. This is also the reason that struts are typically more expensive than shocks.
To add to the confusion, some cars have strut inserts, a removable damper (shock). These are called "serviceable struts".
