Ok. Done this on every car I've owned and attempting on the C280. Is there a trick in getting the plug wires off? Does it twist first or simply pull the lower
part of the plug wire? It's on pretty tight and for as much as these wires cost, I don't want to bust it. Thanks.

This worked for me
Having a boot puller will help you, they are not to expensive and will prevent damage if used correctly. I changed out the wires anyway when I did a tune-up just to be safe. Hope this helps

Got it. My neighbor had one of the boot puller tools. I couldn't have done it by hand alone not to mention the plugs were in there. Thought something was going to break while pulling them out.
