That pretty much sums it up. The rears are pretty difficult due to space constraints. Also, make sure you snap in the spark plug connectors correctly when reconnecting everything. They need a hard wiggle and push. I rechecked mine like 6 times and was still finding some that were loose. Good luck!

I cant figure out how to take the coil out.


Did you ever take the center consoul out and connect ur ipod to it?

you have to unscrew the nut out that hold coil follow the plug
the plug will lead you to the spark plug

I must be an idiot because I still can't see where you take the nut out the coil, would you happen to have any pictures? My car is a 2001 and has 45K miles, should I even change them yet since its so old or should i wait till 100K. either way i still need to know how to do it.

THE COIL PACK THERE SHOULD BE A LITTLE NUTS STAR SHAPE LIKE
