Spark plug wires.What goes where?

I have a 88 rx7 turbo 2.
ok.I know the Trailing go on top and the leading on bottom.
But does trailing 1 go in the spark plug nearest the front
of the car and also leading 1 nearest the front of the car?
Or does trailing 1 go in front and then leading 1 rear?
I really need help.

Thanks

Yes, I asked this and I am not quite sure, this is how I tried to get the answer but it never worked. Haynes screws them up twice so I don't know which way is which. Good luck with an answer, I think you probably asked it better than I did

The coils actually say "L and T" and "1 and 2" on it...

You have it down, but the trick I use to remember is that both Leading and Lower start with L, and Trailing and Top start with T. And 1 is in front.
