take the covers off , undo the bolts 10mm heads , start from the outside front 2 then rear 2 and work your way to the middle , don't undo them in one hit undo them in several steps .when you put them back do the middle 2 bolts first and work your way to the outside .

Yeh , thanks for that, but i need to know are there any idiosynchroses with this procedure. TDC and pulley sprocket elighnment etc before removing cams so that one can remove and replace, and everything is still timed good enough to drive to tune shop ?

of course mate you have to set it at tdc before you remove the belt , make sure you line all 3 marks the 2 cam gears and the crank . when you reinstall the cam and crank gears should be lining up with their marks and line up the belt marks with them as well for easy instalation . make sure you dont turn crank pulley when the belt is out you may bent the valves . if you dont know do a search how to time it .
