Mine were horrible. Wish I did them before I tuned the car. Iridiums are pre-gapped...just make sure the ends look good and put them in.

What took some people an hour to do took me 3x that. I had a hard time removing the ignition coils I really wish I would have watch the video on YouTube suggesting that you get a coil puller, life would have been much easier. I wound up getting the job done with a 19mm wrench. I really appreciate all the help and advice getting the job done.

Prying off the ignition coils, what did you use? They were a b"%$@ to get leverage on.
