Re: Plugs
You don't have to remove the fuel rails. It's a lot simpler than you think. Takes a 1/4" ratchet and either a 8MM or a 10MM. Unplug each coil pack and then pull them off. They are flexible enough to pull out. Then get a 3/8" ratchet with a spark plug socket and a 6" extension and you can get right on them.

Re: Plugs
It looks a lot more complicated than it is because of the location but I think these plugs are easier to change than the 5.0s. Just be careful not to let any dirt drop down in there. That sucks.

Re: Plugs
It isn't that bad, last week I checked all of mine because I have had the imfamous "ticking" sound on my '02 GT. Wanted to make sure I didn't have a plug popped out or on its way to being popped out.
