Coil packs should have the corresponding cylinder numbers written on them if they are the originals

Connect the end of each plug lead to each spark plug, and the corresponding coil terminals. If they're the coils are original they will have the cylinder number in white writing.

If not, use google images to see which terminal needs to go to each cylinder.

Number one is the one closest to the front of the car and number 6 is closest to the rear.

If they are not numbered, just see which ones fit length ways to the corresponding plugs.
You'll soon see which ones fit where.

Or, if your old ones are numbered, just match your new ones to them,
and see above for the lay out.

I always take off the old leads and then match up the new leads and number them :)

Technically, you only need to have the lead on one of the 2 posts on the correct coil ;)
