You need to remover the heater motor and cover that sits infront of the ECU's.
You may also have to remove a strut brace too, if you have one on your car.
Then you can easily access the ignition and fuel ECU's.

Hope this helps mate.

Take the rubber bit off, you can then unclip the front of the heater box. Theres two 13mm bolts inside, you just need to remove them and the whole lot is free. Think there maybe a earth wire to unscrew also
