When i did this job i used a set of pliers to pull and put back the spark plugs. I wrapped the pliers in work shop paper and stuck them in the tubes. I rotated them and they sliped right out. I did the same thing to put them back in just that I applied pressure and rotation at the same time to get them to set. I also applied a bit of fresh oil on the seals to ease putting them back. Before putting the spark plugs back I put the coils on and tightened them as much as possible and let it sit for a bit. This ensured that the tubes were seated properly. I found this quit easy except when the plugs have to be put back in. which is horrible. Not enough space, located in a hard to reach area, overall uncomfortable. And Ya let me find the pictures that i took and I will upload them.
