remove the throttle body itself when you get to it. makes like a lot easier.
you will need torx bits btw

remove battery
remove upper inlet noting position of vaccum pipes
tape over holes in lower inlet incase something falls in
remove coolant bottle
remove the 4 torx bolts that hold the tb onto the bracket
remove wiring from the tps and icv
disconnect throttle cable
remove the throttle body
remove icv and clean it all up with carb cleaner. (not wd40)
refit it all.
p.s when you refit the tb to the inlet pipe from the air filter its a good idea to use a sealant around the joint (hermatite red gasket stuff is good, just dont get it on your fingers) and secure it with a jubilee clip rather than the shitty standard clips.
