Only hard part was shopping for the plugs...

I had tried 4 nearby parts places and no one had them in stock. Once I got the "decorative" cover off it was staight forward. Except for that little gasket on the di. I didn't notice they were there. Only one had come loose. The di is held on by 4 torx screws and once loosened they came off ok. Don't turn them upside down. You will need a 5 or 6 inch extension for the socket wrench. Apply some dielectric grease to the new plugs. (I once had a nightmare changing plugs on a 1980 celica. The plugs were in this tube down inside the valve cover about 5 inches deep. When I pulled the wire off the plug, the boot at the end stuck to the plug. I had nothing that would reach down far enough to grab the boot. Had to make a trip to the store and buy some really long nose pliers, then when I got close to the boot I couldn't open the pliers because the tube was so narrow. Had to go back and get a LONGER nose plier. 1/2 hour job lasted forever. I will always put the grease on.) The di was no problem putting back on. You can feel it slipping over the spark plugs.
