I removed my how to over on 7club for a few reasons. Figured i would put it here.

Disconnect your battery. Then the fuel pump access door is behind the Driver on a USDM spec FD. Lift up the carpet and you'll see it. If you have a Bose stereo system you'll probably have to remove it. There should be 4 screws holding the door down.

Lift up the fuel door and unclip the wiring harness

You can either unclip the ground or unscrew it i went with unscrewing it.

Set the door off to the side and unscrew the fuel line connectors

Clean off the area for obvious reasons

Take all the screws out of the fuel hatch

You'll need to push the 2 fuel lines out of the way. The line on the right hooks into a clip i found it easier to pull the line of the clip so you get more play in the line

Lift out SLOWLY as to not hook the float on anything

Remove the screw on the back of the rack, mine was extremely tight

The + and - wires are different sizes so you can't really screw that up but hey maybe you can. I left 1 wire on just to make sure i didn't

With the new fuel pump make sure and hook up the fuel bag thing
by pressing on the washer

Put the spacer and O-ring in the fuel neck

Put the fuel pump space and cover on the fuel pump

Tadaaa

Put it all back in the car and start her up. I let my car idle for quite a while to make sure there was no air in the fuel lines.

Please add in anything i might have forgotten.
