remove upper intake manifold (if you dont have a FFIM) next remove the fuel lines, then remove the 3 bolt holding on the fuel rain on.

not a fun job.

expect this to take a more than a few hours.

it's straight forward and there is no quick way.

you can remove the throttle body but just remove the whole upper intake chamber.

also make sure you replace all injector O rings, and grommets. and new copper washers.

edit: kinda odd that 2 injectors next to each other went out.

what are your symptoms? (if you don't mind sharing)

its just idling funny.
kinda funny how i we found out.
the mechanic heard it so he got a light light stick and put it on top of the plugs on the injectors and if you lightly feel the stick you can feel all the times its shooting in fuel. i did this to all of them and 3 and 4 were the only ones i didn't feel anything.

Make sure you lube the orings on both ends of the injectors before you install them. Helps them slide into the fuel rail and intake without getting pinched. A little light grease will work fine.

might be worth checking with a noid light to make sure you are getting power to those injectors in the first place

i just searched that right now and it seems like a more intelligent move.
