It is a major PITA. First of all, there are 12, and they are generally low on the block. It is do-able, but do not try to do it in a hurry, and make sure that you have various length socket extensions with a good quality plug socket. The rear plugs (closest to passenger compartment) are really, really nasty to access. If you are not mechanically inclined, or if are short of patience, it would be money well-spent to have the dealer do it. If you like skinned knuckles, backaches, and cussing, then I say go for it!
