if it is a 1.6l it should be right on top of the cam head. 4 of them wired up. dont take the caps out unless you number them 1-4. if you take the one farthest left on your motor # it 1. it will be very helpful when putting new plugs in and putting the caps back on.

those "things" are your coil packs ...they send the spark to your plugs
