No link but super easy took like 5 min. Just pop the air hoses of the manifolds, pull the holes outta the clips under the cowl and pull the hoses off the front left inner fender, install your block off plates. Then go in through the foglight door on the bottem of the car at the front left and theres 3 bolts i think where 10mm and ur done.

The only thing that you need to remember is to plug up the vacuum line. The hoses all meet on the driver side rear of the engine and there is a circular UFO shaped object there. Just pull up on it and it will eventually pop out, remove the vacuum line that is connected on top of the UFO object and plug up the vacuum line, I used a small bolt I had laying around. That is the only thing the instructions don't tell you since we have a 2000 car. Oh and wear gloves too you will scrape up you hands trying to remove the stuff from the back of the engine.

98-99 is SUPER EASY, but 2000-2002 is a bit more complicated....
