Took off the fuel rail - injectors come off fairly easily - the metal clips that hold them in just slide out but put them somewhere so you don't lose them and don't drop them into the engine. Took me 1/2 an hour to find the one I dropped.

The clips that hold the electrical connectors to the injectors are not like many where you lift a tab and pull or push on the wire and it lets go. The wire shaped like shown in the picture catches the injector flange in 3 places and has to be pulled off completely. Get a small hooked thingy ant pull off the top on one side and pull it down then grab the middle with pliers or something similar and do the same thing on the other side,

Changing the injectors is easy but make sure you don't use the wrong O rings when you switch cause they are different sizes and the ones that are on the bottom are 9 bucks each from the dealer according to OEM.
