Tbh you could probably get away with ignoring them altogether, the engine barely uses them.

I never wait for the the glowplug light on my HDi, just turn the key straight round

they only need to work near freezing temperatures
look just underneath the injector loom for the plastic cable wrap, under each of those nuts is the glow plugs. don't loose the nuts unless the new plugs come with new nuts, done that before on an xud and had to loosen the pump off to rescue it with a magnet

I've started my HDi first time at -6 with no power to the plugs, cranked twice and fired as normal, so quite when the engine is meant to need them i'm not sure lol.
