Thats a shame.
wait till the engine is cool. Then you pretty much just have to pull them all off. The back ones can be a little bit of a pain but they are all easy to get to. I usually get to the back ones from the side of the car,and not over the top of the engine from the front.
Wost case is you could proabably bring it to an auto parts store and ask someone to do it for you real quick.

I just made my own last weekend, bought a 25ft roll of MSD 8.5mm wire and plug boots, and I already had the crimper, had less than $90 in to the set and I have wire and boots left over. I drilled out the factory holders for the larger wire.

There is plenty of threads for this on the site, they tell you how to roll your engine forward a few inches in order to get to the back of the motor. Thats what i did. Just search and you'll find a lot of help.

Unfortunately, one of the ladies was behind the counter giving me the good news, so I had to be civil. Chrizzle17, thanks, I just searched, awesome database.

For sure man, this is a great site. 175 had me laughing. The stealership will rape you for just about anything.
