How do you change Coil Packs

[kaishiz]

hey all.
is this a really easy change or will i find that if i unscrew the screws some spings and shiet will fling out and ill be stuck not knowing where to put it back?

Remove battery terminals. Easy as undoing the 2 screws on each coil pack. You will need 7/32 socket. If you have standard stereo make sure you have pin code.

Disconnecting the battery is just a safety precaution.

so i guess nothing will pop out then... do all original stereos have a pin code???
sounds easy enough...

no big deal, pop into a dealer with some rego papers and they will give it to you. ( some will charge for it)

[walesy]

go to holden with your vin number and proof of ownership they might be able to look it up for you

EDIT: DVSV8 beat me to it
