Default Pulling spark plugs from valve cover

Is there any special way to go about this? Besides pulling them off?

Valve cover torque sequence is:

-Front middle
-Rear right
-Rear left
-Front right
-Front left

So probably just do that in reverse?

You need the deep socket made specifically for removing the spark plugs. The spark plug wires can simply be pulled out. Exactly what bolts are you talking about?

put a dab of "dielectric" grease on the wires before snapping them onto the plugs, it will make removal really easy.
