Timing belt how to?

I think my car is about due for a new timing belt so I'm going to order a kit from ECS. I remember reading a how to but I can't seem to find it again. Does anybody have a link?

Yeah its a 1.8t. Thanks for the link. It doesn't seem too bad other than taking off the bumper. I know that I'll probably break it somehow or drop it on the ground, lol.

dont worry it is much easier that is looks. just take your time and go step by step. it took me a total of 4.5 hours with a lunch break, so it ws not tough, i actually found it to be a lot of fun.
