Just be somewhat gentle with the coils, pull them straight up, don't yank them off to one side. If one gets damaged they aren't too cheap to replace. Also make sure you have a few short socket extensions on hand. Stacking two short extensions makes it much easier to get at the passenger side rear plug due to the limited room you have there (Place socket on one extension, lower in partially, attach other extension and ratchet).

You have to loosen the A/C line brackets too to access the coils for, I think its, cyl. 3 and 4...

Bolts right.

Rich, I just used a 10 inch extension. I didnt have any issue getting a full extension down in the pass rear.
