Yeah there is just 4 small torx head screws to take out. 2 screw down into the top of the indicator and 2 into the back. If you look at your new ones you should be able to see where they go so will help you find them. Then all you need to do is disconnect the plug  :wink:

Yes was indeed Mike, but noticed my MPG falling, so thought it would be worth a try...

It worked!

 :happy2: :happy2:  Think 8's are in mine.  Will whip them out and check them.  Theyre okay for a bit of a thrashing on Ko4 but might get coked up pootling around.
Im going to get some 7's for daily and 8 for track days

I have a set of these aswell, Denso Iridium Plugs IK24's,

DENSO’s patented iridium alloy is extremely tough and wear-resistant. This makes it possible to produce a spark plug with a centre electrode of just 0.4 mm. Denso Iridium spark plugs give a stronger spark and better ignition performance in all areas of driving. These plugs can withstand even the most severe conditions and have proven themselves in original equipment and racing. This product gives DENSO the leading position in Iridium Spark Plug technology.

but found the NGK's where better, smoother, more mpg, quiter tickover! All with just a change of sparkplugs  :happy2:

Yeah I had a look at them before. Can't find the thread now though. I can't be sure if it was his sets, but I didn't think the D looked right.

I see you got your indicators sorted too. Not a bad job is it. Look loads better :happy2:
