The hardest part for me was getting the driver's side plug loose. It just didn't want to budge for some reason. I found that if you take the intake hose off then that will give you the room to really get some pressure on it. The passenger side plug was already kind of loose on mine. After that it was a breeze.

I forgot to mention that, agreed take the intake off it's much easier, mine was off anyway because I also did the CCK.

No problem. There's no reason for you to have to struggle with that plug like I did. You can be done with it and then be on to the next mod.
