Well I said I wanted to figure out how to access the plugs and create a DIY since most of our vehicles are getting up there in age. I created a PDF file so that it can be viewed for forever and printed with ease. Below is a pasted quick list of parts that is also within the PDF along with pictures and step by step instructions. I'm pasting this shor text here for internet search hits if needed.
