Open the bonnet and place the support rod. Work with the handbrake engaged. Remove the outer cover of the engine bay by detaching it with your hands.

Using a 10 mm socket, unscrew the four screws that secure the engine cover, and remove this part. You will notice that four holes will remain exposed.

Now, using a 16 mm spark plug socket, enter the holes and unscrew the spark plugs. Take the new spark plugs you have purchased, remove their protection, and insert them into the 16 mm socket, then screw them into place and reassemble everything.
