Exactly what you said. I found out if you jump up in the car, with your knees on the battery it is so much easier. You can then actually lean down and get back to the back passenger side plug. After doing it a few times you learn how to do it by feel!

ever get them done? I'm in the same situation, changed out my plug wires last weekend, didn't mess with the plugs even though I knew I should have. Original plugs with 55K miles on it. Note I just bought the car from my dad 2 months ago, he didn't like wrenching on the car. But ever since changing plugs and having issues getting the boot off of #8, the car seems to be be having issues. Still feels pretty strong down low, but not running like it should, and the exhaust has been popping and almost backfiring since then. I need to get new plugs and swap them out, really don't want to mess with it myself, especially since most of my tools are stored up, going to be moving soon.

For $75 bucks thats not too bad. I know some shops want ALOT more than that.
