2 more tips:
When getting those 8mm bolts off the coilpacks, you can use a magnet to pick them up off the coil when removing, and use the magnet to guide them into their holes when reinstalling. This lessens the chance of losing the lil suckas.

Use contact cleaner on electrical points to clean them and remove oils/junk and coat connections w/dielectric grease. Also good idea to use antiseize grease on spark plug threads (use antiseize on lugnuts too to get good torque reading and prevent locked lugs!)

Depending on the quality of your tools, when installing spark plugs, your socket might separate from the extension when you try to pull the socket back up. You should get an extension with the locking pin, so you won't lose your socket in the well.

Good luck...should take less than 30min. Remember to note the conditions of your old spark plugs...they might tell u something about how your engine's running and/or if you're gonna have future problems (I had some burn oil in the front middle spark)
