Just did my thermostat a couple of weeks ago. Do yourself a favor and buy a long T30 (or was it a 40?) torx bit. A regular bit is just too thick in the rear screw with the fuel rails in the way to get to and you'll end up buggering up the torx head of the screw. Good luck. www.fcpgroton.com sells the thermostats for really cheap. If you have a turbo, buy the 87degree one and not the 90degree one...you'll be happier with the cooler one because it will warm your engine faster, especially with winter coming on. Good luck.
