I'm with you...Us skinny boys have it made. Hell I've only got the coil packs held on with two bolts each. Any more than that is just extra weight. LOL

!heater, !AC...
best free mod out there, the #8 is the easiest to change.
Of course, you'd have to live in San Diego to daily drive year round with no heater or AC.

I remove the passenger air tube and push it out of the way, then practically stand on my battery. Then I put my left arm straight in and parallel to the head, and assemble the extension, socket, swivel, and ratchet, one-handed and remove the plug. It takes awhile, and almost requires being a magician.

go ahead and take the coil pack bracket off, put the socket on the spark plug, then attach the ratchet right onto the socket, and take a nice sized open-end wrench and use that for leverage to push on the ratchet handle to break the spark plug loose. once its loose its cake walk.
