1. Remove the air trunking across the top of the engine to and from the turbo.
2. Under this you can see a bus bar running along the top of the head on the passenger side.
3. This is connected to the inlet manifold by a nut and some wires* Note: take a pic of how this is connected, as you can properly mess up if the spacer is wrongly connected or is broken
4. Remove all the plastic and metal nuts that connect the bus bar to the glow plugs (x4).
5. Remove the Bus Bar
6. Remove the glow plugs (14mm socket i think)
7. Replace the glow plugs
8. Replace the Bus Bar fitting all the nuts to the glow plugs.
9. Connect the cables to the bus bar with the spacer fitted so that the cables nor the bar short out on the inlet manifold.

Put it all back together .....simples.....oh and this might be helpful http://www.toyotasurf.asn.au/techsite/glowplugs.htm

Just one thing to remember when taking apart you need to remember which way round you dismantle everything or you'll blow the 80amp fuse if not put together right
