Help out a noob?

Ok, so i need to replace my plugs. When I can find them I can do it myself(lots of small engine experience). Just never really done alot of work on a car before. I have a 2003 P5. Anyone have pics for me as to where they would be located.

Also any advice on how to change the low beam bulb on the passenger side?
 
Um... Spark plugs on a 4 cylinder couldn't be much easier to find. They're right on top, basically. With the P5, you'll have to get the coil packs out of the way, but then the plug wires are right there.

Your engine won't look quite like this (this one's turbo'd) but just to the left (right side of car) of the oil cap are your two coil packs and four plug wires. There you go. :D
 
cool dude, thats what I thought, but i wanted to be sure before i started taking things off.

When you take the coil packs off be very careful when you pull the bottom part out of the hole. The rubber boots on these are prone to damage and you don't want to cut them on the edge of the valve cover. The first time I changed my plugs one of the boots had been damaged by a previous owner and it fell apart. It was not fun fishing the rubber fragments out of the deep dark spark plug hole.
