Are you serious? They have an L and a T beside the plug holes.

Wow, that pic is awesome. I realize its easy to figure it out, but its still nice to see it visually like that.
For future searching: spark plug wire location picture.

Most of the technical info you'll need to servicing and repairing these cars can be found in the Factory Service Manual (FSM). Click here and download it in PDF format for free. Also go out and buy a Haynes manual. It doesn't have as much info, but it has good photos and is written in a fashion easier to follow.

For many simple tasks I find the haynes easier to use. Like he said, it is easier to follow and doesn't get bogged down in deails like the FSM can. The way I describe it is that they complement each other.
