First, do you really need to change plugs? The iridium tipped plugs that come standard in the Solara are good for 100,000 miles. You'd be driving 20,000 per year to need changing now.
Assuming it's time, the answer differs a bit between 4 and 6 cylinder cars. With the larger engine you have to remove the plastic cover first. For both, you'll find the plugs nestled under the coils (4 or 6) mounted atop the valve cover(s). Remove the coils to uncover the plugs (down in a hole). For the 6 cylinder, the manual says remove the intake plenum to reach the rear plugs. If you're double jointed and have appropriate tools this may not be absolutely necessary but it sure makes getting to the rear plugs a lot easier.
The appropriate spark plug numbers are in your owner's manual.

How often change spark plugs 2007 Toyota solara?
Check your owner's manual. The Iridium tipped plugs used in most late model engines don't need changing for 100 thousand miles. That's a good thing since (on the V-6 anyway) the rear plugs are a little tough to reach. If yours is the V-6 here's something to consider. The cam drive belt is scheduled for a change at 90 thousand miles. Since so many items are removed for that service anyway it makes sense to change the plugs and water pump at that point. Cheers

How do you change the spark plugs in a 2001 Chevy s10 pick-up truck?
First you remove the spark plug wires from each of the spark plugs, being careful not to wreck the wires. then you get a deep well socket that fits around the spark plugs. then you take out each of the spark plugs. get the new spark plugs and insert them in the spark plug holes. tighten them up and put the spark plug wires back on the plugs. I find there is more room to work if you jack up the front of the truck and remove the wheels. With a long extension you can easily reach five of them thru the wheel well. The one behind the steering shaft on the drivers side is a challenge.
