Found this image, today, and the caption said:

Remove the coolant reservoir and intercooler reservoir. Once the coolant reservoir and lines are out of the way, it's much easier... or something like that.

Also, looks like he popped out the fuse block and moved it.

This is sage advice and I think it would help, immensely.

FYI.

Ahh yes!!
The fuse box makes the fronts easier on that side. Just so you can move it around a little. Shows how much I tried to forget.🤣
The intercooler bottle I thought was a given. I should have mentioned that and the air box.😉🤔

This job sounds like having the exact right tool configuration might make or break the job, even down to having various tool setups for each cylinder position.

Does not look like a fun time. I think I have "as long as you own the car you never have to change them" plugs:cool:

The exact right tool would be gas and a match.🤣🤣
It's not so much needing tools as much as needing room. Once the coil pops off the plugs . You are up maybe an inch out of the hole with 4 inches of tube still in. The coil is now up against some F'ing tube or some crap. So you have to bend them out so the tubes make a U-turn before they are free.
The 2 rear coils on the right (passenger side) I found it easier to fold them out forward do to lack of space and hands that did want to look like they lost a battle in a food processor.

At my wits end about to cut this bitch out. For no fucking reason this plastic box exists. I dont have small hands and they look like I punched a cheese grater. 🤬

Would it be beneficial to remove the hood?
If you grab 2 helpers, its a quick job.
Throw a couple towels on the roof, mark the hinge placement on the hood with a marker, 1 person on each side to hold it, person 3 undoes the bolts, and place the hood upside on the cars roof. I have frequently removed the hood of cars and trucks, makes most jobs so much easier.

Sounds like it might have been faster to just pull the engine 😂

Please explain how this thing comes off.

I tried, but did t want to break any tabs.

Sounds like the OP is up against it, right now.

A 12 gauge would be quickest, a bit messy though...
