Default 2004 Santa Fe glow plug replacement

First post here...

I have a 2004 2L diesel Santa Fe and it's showing all the signs of needing 1 or more glow plugs replaced. So I have 2 questions...

Firstly, I have some idea where the glow plugs are located (at the back of the engine behind the injectors?) but I have no idea where the relay and fuse are. Can anyone tell me where I could find them?

Secondly, how tough a job is it? I'm no mechanic but I'm reasonably good at this kind of work. I've reconditioned the alternator and replaced the brake pads myself. That's about where my skill level is at. Is replacing the glow plugs something I should be taking on?

Appreciate any help/advice you can offer.

Try purchasing a Hayne's manual for your vehicle. Most parts stores carry them make sure it covers diesels.
