Changing the plugs is fairly easy. Just follow the plug wires. remove and replace them one at a time. I did both plugs and wire on my daughter's car and it was a PITA. You're working by feel and not much space to work. I'm 5"6' and only weigh 120 and I had difficulty getting my arms in between the back of the engine and the firewall. If you're easily get discourage and not have a lot of patience then take it to the shop.
