To change points in a distributor, first, disconnect the battery to ensure safety. Remove the distributor cap to access the points, and then take out the old points by loosening the screws that hold them in place. Install the new points by aligning them properly and tightening the screws, ensuring the gap is set according to the manufacturer's specifications. Finally, reassemble the distributor cap and reconnect the battery.

Ensure that the wiring harness is compatible with the new distributor, and double-check for any necessary changes to the ignition coil, as electronic distributors often require a different coil than points systems.
