What you see in the picture below is the ignition coil,follow the plug wires to the other end it will take you to the spark plugs.

SPARK PLUG REMOVAL/INSTALLATION CAUTION: If a spark plug that is not as specified is installed, sealing performance will be deteriorated. Install only the specified spark plug when replacing. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Remove the high-tension leads. (L3 engine model) Remove the spark plug using the plug-wrench. Install in the reverse order of removal. Tightening torque: 10 - 14 N.m {1.1 - 1.4 kgf.m, 8.0 - 10.3 ft.lbf} https://www.2carpros.com/kpages/auto_repair_manuals_alldata.htm
