its not too hard,
remove the fuel line from the rails
unclip the injectors
unbolt the rails
pull up on the rails
remove the injectors from the intake/rails
put some lube on the orings
place injectors in rails
place rails/injectors back on intake
bolt down
connect injector harness
attach fuel line
tuning
done

Injectors could be one of the easiest things to install, even though they may seem hard to install. Hardest part is removing the fuel line for which you need to special tool. The injectors themselves just pop out of the rail with a little hand force. Make sure you get the old o-rings out of the rail if they stick in there.

looks like the one on the right

you push the black grommet back thats covering the fitting, slide that in, and it pops off.

before you do that, hold a rag over the schrader valve and press it in to release the pressure, and get a little fuel out of the rails...
