Just remove fuel rail guard and it's easy. Hardest part is removing the injector from the rail, but just keep wiggling

haha s**t,is it so tight fitted?

Not really, but they might need a bit of lube and a wiggle

Great stuff,will keep that in mind.just hate the stripping on this car,what a headache!

So. Expose the fuel.rail taking of the cover in front of the inlet plenum. Exposing the fuel rail then take out the bolts holding the rail in place. Pull off fuel rail.
