I changed my plugs last summer. As I recall, you need to take off the plastic covers using a torx socket. Don't mistake the fuel injectors for the spark plugs. Each spark plug has a small coil on top of it. They need to be removed.
Just follow your spark plug wires and do one plug at a time. Remember to gap the plugs and to use anti-seize on the threads. Don't force anything. If the plugs won't come out easily, spray some PB Blaster down the hole and give it some time to work. Good luck and let us know how it works out.
