Plus Honda charges like 2x as much for the same plugs.

You need a spark plug socket. It has a piece of rubber inside that keeps the plug from falling out when you go to install it. You'll want to buy plugs that are pre-gapped, or you can gap them yourself (might want to double check them anyway). Just tighten them until they are snug to avoid stripping the holes. Other than that it's pretty self explanitory.

even when buying pregapped plugs ALWAYS check the gap with the spark plug gauge,...after all you dont know what the plugs went through during shipping to your house or during shipping to the local autoparts store
