It's mounted on the top of the inlet manifold just of center, it's the black box that the four HT leads come out of.

Are they on the 'sides' of the engine (in the top of the rocker covers)?
And an even dafter question - where are the spark plugs? - do the coil packs replace the need for them? (<<i heard this was so on some kind of old weird and wonderful mazda engine - don't think it was rotary) or are they under the coil packs?
Sorry if i sound dumb folks, only this is my first car with coil packs, and i know the MY98-ish versions had HT leads, mine blummin dos'nt lol.

On a 1996 (and on the newage cars), you have four coil packs. They sit directly on top of the spark plugs (coil on plug). No need for a HT lead with this system. All petrol engines need a spark plug to function.
And as you say, the plugs are located 'in the sides' of the engine. Two in each side as it is a flat four configuration.
