I am hoping not to lose the connection for the wires/plugs/coils. Just in case I did, can someone tell me which one is which?

<----Front of car Coil 1 Coil 2 Coil 3 Coil 4

<----Front of car T1 T2
L1 L2

Can someone tell me which wire goes where? I see two wires with the blue/green marking on it.

Thanks

look here - http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=31872.html

just to summarise.

The blue/green leads connect to the trailing plug (top 1).

The easiest thing is to replace them 1 at a time so you don't get lost. Remove all of them at once and hope you have a good memory.

I'm sure you will be fine anyway.

So it looks like the coil lines up like L1 T1 L2 T2?

I just want to make sure. My car is still missing a tire, cant start it yet, so pissed

Here is what is noted in the BHR Ignition System instructions:

"Step 2) Disconnect each of the four Mazda ignition coil wiring harness connectors and keep them in order, front to rear. Note the following; the coil sequence, front-to-rear, is L1, T1, L2, T2 and the coil trigger wires in each Mazda harness connector are green (L1), white (T1), yellow/green (L2), and blue/black (T2)."
