Pull upon the little cubby that's near your right knee when you're sitting in the driver's seat. 

Then pull it a bit harder and it opens further to reveal the diagnostic socket. 🙂

Keep (in the car) at least one of the working ones you swap out, just in case one of the new ones let you down. 🙂

Did you check spark plug of cylinder 1?

Hi Pete, obd reader displayed cylinder 1 replaced all spark plugs & new ignition coil. Took it for a good run best I have felt it ever run more responsive. Good idea keep other replaced coils if any future problems with new. Thanks again, I have seen your responses to other guys on forum very knowledgeable & helpful Len👍

It's a common issue for coil packs to go on these. My first was cylinder 1, which prompted an EML. Then it was one of the other two that failed and would misfire badly under load etc, so just replaced the other two, and kept the less visibly knackered one as a spare. I prefer these pencil-type coils to the ones that requires you to replace them all. :)
