    If it's multipoint injection, remove coilpack (10 mm bolts) to gain access to the fuel rail, then remove fuel rail (10mm bolts) remove clips, remove injector, then put in the new one, 10 min job really.

    its fairly straight forward. the injectors are just a push fit into the head. the trouble i had was the fuel rail though. i found iot really awkward to remove and just ended up working around it. Also i did up one of the 2 fuel rail bolts too tight and snapped it so had to drill it out and retap the hole
