I'm going to switch out my plugs and wires this weekend, do you guys have any advice or notice any problems you've had with doing this at all that I should know about before hand?
Thanks for your help in advance!

yeah, make sure you have atleast 2 different lengh rachet extensions. And If you have the V6, the back 3 are a bit of a bitch! Due to the amount of space you have to work with and the fact that you cant really see what your doing. First time i did it it took me 3 times as long to do the back 3 than it did to do the front 3.
Oh and if your going to be putting in wires 8mm or bigger you should replce all your wire looms, cause the stock ones will not fit in the old looms.
other that that its a piece of cake!
A few beers makes the job a little less frustrating.

Yeah rear 3 are a bitch, it's all feel. I would go with NGK v-power or iridium or the ac delco rapid fires. Wires, I went with the accel 8mm, you gotta make sure you get em with the right boots, and the ends the connect to the dis module you have to strip crimp your self, but they are damn good wires with thick insul wich is good since the front 3 run over top the intake.

for wires just order some from APOC or Doctor Speed. i got the MSD Helicore wires from Doctor Speed. I think they are great wires and they are a perfect match to stock wires, no crimping needed. Plus they come in blue, for a nice engine accent.
