They are accessed from the top of the engine above the valve covers, there will be a COP above each of them that you need to unbolt and remove, the COP will be a cylinder with a white sticker on top.

A COP is a coil over plug. BTW, Welcome to the forum!

As galaxie mentioned above you have to remove the coil over each cylinder to access the individual plug.
