I think removing the starter and doing it from below works for some. Get headers and it will be much easier.

That's very true,it helps if you have long skinny arms,unfortunately I don't .
I found the one at the back to be the hardest.Some of them can be done with an open-ended wrench directly onto the spark plug socket,others can be done with a ratchet.
The plug wires aren't quite as bad,cut the boots off the end of the old wires and then you can pull them through the looms.I routed my new 8.5mm wires behind the power steering pump on the passenger side and used plenty of plastic cable ties to keep them away from my stock manifolds.No problems in over a year now .
Regards,Mark.
