Default Changing plugs on a 2000 V6 Mustang

I am going to change the plugs on my Daughter's 2000 Mustang. It has a V6 engine. What is the best way to get at the plugs on the passenger side? It looks kinda of tight to get at them.

Pull the intake tube and the throttle body and you should have room.

When you're hooking everything back up, make sure that the wire for the #3 cylinder isn't touching the pipe coming off the exhaust manifold. I had this happen to me and it burned through the wire in a week.

Just a heads up.
