You get a special tool to pull out s/plugs

Most of them attack to a Wrench and clip to the top part, then you pull it out.
I'll try and find a pic of mine

pull the leads out, then u need a spark plug socket, its then a case of unscrewing them out.

when putting new ones in, dont ever over tighten them, coz if they get crossthreaded, ur fucked.
