There are too ways, both equally as pain staking as the others. Option #1- Take off the manifold all together, but if you do that, it also means that you need to take off the throttle body. Option #2 - use your larger extension and two elbowed extensions, also it helps if you have a folding socket wrench as well. All that manuveraubility should get it done, worked for me, still a pain though.

The tool for number 6 plug is in the factor tool kit under rear seat... If it has not been taken out. The short tool is for number six and the long is for the rest. If you dont have this it is almost impossible to do with regular shop tools. Number six is a MF without it.

Use two extensions with a knuckle between them. Also get a spark plug socket that holds the plug in when loose.
