Swivel socket and a long extension is your friend. No, not kidding.

The other trick is to tape the plug socket to the swivel socket along with the extension. I know, you must be asking how as it twist, tape will all come off. I use duct tape, not that weak blue tape. Ask mehow I has to fine out. I put a bit of anti-seize on the thread and silicone grease on the inside of the rubber boot. Bought them the plugs, and Bleu (spelling?) from FCP as a kit.

There is no need to do anything else, the heat shield is the biggest PITA because smaller hands are needed. I think the small nuts on the heat shield is a 8mm inside star nut. Since they aren't on too tight, a cheap set was all that's needed. I had a miss fire code flashing and the car can bearly make it up the hill . Bob help me out here a bit, like he always does.
