Default HT leads-how to change

Hey,

What's the easiest way to change the leads? As in, which other parts do I need to take off to actually get to where they attach to spark plugs?

I'd prefer to not stick my head under the car!!

It's a standard uk turbo 2000 (99T)

Thank you

Ellie

Just need to remove air box from drivers side and water bottle moved out of way on passengers side, this will allow access to all plugs

you dont need to remove anything, HT leads can be removed/refitted in a 99 with everything in place & all can be done from top of engine

just make sure you do it when the car is cold, otherwise you'll get burnt arms & fingers!

remove and replace each lead individually, that way you wont get mixed up when refitting

if changing plugs then you need to do as jaygsi says
