Whats the trick(spark plug)

Very front plug on the driver side closest to the nose of the car. I was able to get the old one out but am struggling to get the new one in. Any tricks or recommendations?

I see your running EM headers. So am I, and I start that plug from under the car.

Is this plug the most difficult?

Did you try the 6 inch long piece of rubber hose, trick?

I start #1,3,6,8 from under the car. Some I use the spark plug socket and an open end wrench. None are too difficult once you've changed them a few times.
