Spark plug wires/coils/plugs connection

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 - https://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.
