use a locking extension, that way the spark plug socket will come out with the extension.

Got it and i tend to use some old rubber hose to get the plugs hand tight before torqueing lightly [patriot]

Anything in the way near the coils as i'm familiar w/ swapping plugs on the 4.6l dohc 03 cobra motors so i assume it's somewhat similar.

Thanks
