Default Plug Wire Change

Guys -

For any of those who have changed plug wires, did you remove the fuse box or just worked around it?

Thanks
Ken

Takes 5 min to remove once you break the bolt free , use heat and an impact so you don't break the fuse box

I have to ask , how many miles are on your car and why are you changing plug wires

I recently had to replace #4 plug and with the fuse box out of the way made the job a lot easier. It took me about 10 minutes to remove the fuse box and about half that time to replace it. There was no way to easily get to the plugs or wires without removing the box.
