Default spark plug wire replacement

What's the trick to remove those plastic retainer clips for the spark plug wires, the ones that keep them in order. I was thinking about taking each side out at a time. That way at least I can see more details of what the clips look like. If I choose that route where can I find a free firing order diagram so I get everything which ways it goes?

Default Re: spark plug wire replacement

I actually just did my wires and plugs today (well I tried the wires but the ones autozone gave me were too short)...if you pull all the wires off you can fit a flathead screwdriver under the little tabs on the brackets and they pop right off.

As for the firing diagram, mine has one under the hood right where the wires hook up. Might want to check that if you haven't already.
