Post Distributor cap replacement

Does anybody know where there is a good tech procedure for replacing the distributor capa nd rotor arm on a '91 944S2?. I've got all the parts and I figure it can't be that difficult but I always like to know if there are any good tips I should know before I start.
Also does anybody know when Clarkes 944 Garage site will be upa and running again?

Put dielectric grease in the holes where the plug wires snap in. Prevents corrosion/moisture problems.

Andy,

The cap & rotor on the S2 are dead simple, unlike early 944's that were tricky. 3 screws to take the cap off...only possible tricky part is that one of the screws is underneath the plug leads where you might not see it at first.
