Any tips on Plug wire install

Does anyone have any tips on making my plug wire swap go smoother?
The passenger side looks like it might be a b*tch to do.
My #5 plug wire burnt on the last set-up, I guess it popped out of the bracket.

Go to the store and get the biggest container of time and patience that they have. Maybe even two.

If you're running your wires through the stock locations, loosen the two bolts holding the power steering. It'll give you more clearance running the wires around it. No need to take it off. And be very, very patient, it's a PITA.

Ill use something to cover the wires near the TB.

I'd recommend running them over the top too, looks like it would be much easier, but with an intercooler on one side and an FMU on the other, I'm out of luck.
