you have to remove the head to get the head gasket off and put the other one on....so...you would have to remove the timing belt, remove all wires connected to anything that is on the head, disconnect the exhaust, and i think you have to take the cams out to get to the head bolts...then it should pull off.

id say just wait until you HAVE to take the head off to replace the gasket....and just use the thinner gasket.
