Simple question... how do I get the old coil out?

The parts manual shows that only have to undo the bolts (item 20) while not losing the washers (item 26).

But when I look at the atual coil I don't see any bolts (last two pictures). My fear is that it is some how sandwiched between the engine lifting bracket and the engine.

Has any one changed one of these before?

That is why you use a Service manual to repair things, not a parts manual.
Here is from the OEM service manual.

1. Thanks Don!
2. Nuts, it is sandwiched with the engineer lift bracket and those bolts will be hard to reach... it's funny I felt around with my fingers and couldn't feel any thing back there.
3. What is the publication manual number? I'd like to buy a copy.
