if u have good memory ok la....if not take a video from the beginning when u removing all those hoses & screws,
mark them with tape while u at it...althought its very time consuming but worth it.

ive only done this process twice, and it was HELL!! lol.. seriously!! u need to open the intake manifold, anything on top of the valve covers. iirc, they will be 12PITA screws u need to dismantle, not including ic pipes' clips. and then, plonk in the plugs, DONT FORGET reassemble all those parts

DIY is good, if you have the time and tools.
Sending out the car for service and parts replacement is easy, but wait till you encounter bad workmanship.

My fren's car plug cable was damaged (at silicone insulation) because of lazy foreman that refuse to remove the cables, and just bend the plug cable till pecah during spark plugs replacement....The foreman kept quiet about it until my fren found it out after sparks "jumping" to the metal parts of the engine...
