Passenger Side-only had to remove air tube. Reached rear plug from underneath(which also was easiest plug to reach!)
Drivers side was like Christmas!

Wow it took me like 8 hours my first time. But I had a bit of a problem. I went to pull the wire off the first plug on the passenger side and it broke. leaving just the metal thing for me to get it off with. That took forever to get off. Good thing I was changing the wires to.

Good job. did mine today 38 minutes plugs and wires. would have been faster but I had to try to see if I could reach the rear plug on the pax-side from the top. but no luck.
No blood for me either

I did mine on my 99' last week, first time, it took me just under 3 hours and I changed them all without going under the car! I took the coil pack off of the passenger side and was able to get them all real easy that way.
