Default Removing EGR valve from 2002 Accord

To anyone who has removed an EGR valve from a 2002 Accord,

Getting at the two mounting bolts is very restricted. Did you have to remove anything before hand to get at the EGR?

Thanks.

swivel socket or socket with "wobble" extension; I'm guessing from the provided info this is a 4 cyl.

I just removed mine from a 97. It was pretty resticting too. I took a short socket with an extention and just forced it as far onto the nut as I could. And while pressing down I broke the nut loose. Pretty easy after that. But as far as getting those nuts back on... you might wanna pick some up at autozone, cuz your gonna drop em... and lose em... they get caught in the engine bay somewhere and dont fall out... haha..

Thanks h.dude. I'll buy a swivel socket if my standard socket doesn't work. Btw, it's a 4cyl.
