It's very simple. The cap is marked with T1, T2, L1, L2.
The plugs at the top of the engine are T1 (left side) T2 (right side) and the bottom plugs are the same with L1 (left) L2 (right)

Yep.

Also, the rotor housings are labelled "T" and "L," so the only things you really have to remember are:

Front rotor is #1
Front coil is Trailing (normally)
