Im not afraid of repairs, just wondering if the plug change is pretty straightforward? Do i need any special swivels or extensions? Any suggestions? Thought i would ask before getting into it. Thanks all

Very straight forward (assuming you have a v6, if its a 12-15 with an i4 then its even simpler), just take the engine cover off as well as the strut tower bar and then the coil packs are held on with 10mm nuts and then you might need to build a long extension out of 2 3" ones to reach the back bank and the plugs are the common 5/8"

I changed out the plugs on my 2014 V6. The only issue I had was the back passenger side cylinder where the strut brace interfered. I used a standard spark plug socket and two 3 inch extensions. I put one extension on the socket and put it down onto the spark plug then attached the second extension then the wrench. After I got the plug unscrewed I just reversed the process. Very easy job.
