i had to cut the strings and unscrew like two things and positiont eh strings and then screw them back on
and then one of them pinged off and i had to redo it and i didn't even know you're only supposed to take off the old strings one at a time so i had to retighten the coils as well

i felt like an engine man

Yes, total pain in the arse
I was obsessed with double locking trems right up to the point that I got one.

Just like most things with guitar, it's neither better nor worse...jsut different
The idea is that they're more stable than a regular vibrato system (like that found on a Stratocaster). If you really hammer a Strat trem, the strings will normally go out of tune quite easily. With a locking trem, the idea is that the strings return to their original position, make tuning much more stable. It all depends on how well it's set up though. My one was pretty good, but it still went out of tune with heavy use.
