    I'm sure everybody who has done this just loves it! haha

    Any tips on how to change the plugs in the easiest way? I have the service manual, so I got the "dirty version" of how to do it. But if there are any other tips to the replacement process... let me know

    Take off the upper motor mounts, rock the car forward until the motor tilts as far forward as possible, then put the parking brake on to lock it in that position. For the rears, of course.

    patience, deep sockets, an extender for the ratchet, and a blanket to lay on as you sprawl urself ontop of the engine trying to reach the rear ones.
