I have my A.I.R. system removed so it makes it much easier on both sides. On the passenger side, you will have to remove oil dipstick bracket. It also helps to remove some of the spark plug wires. Good luck with it.

I always remove the alternator, AIR valves, coil packs w/ bracket and dipstick tube. If you get all of that stuff out of the way, you're knuckles and fingers will thank you.
