Many member here have helped me with alot of this.
Snakepitts pics and steps help alot for an 03. You'll notice the back of the throttle body or EGR are a little different. But basically the same steps.

Try this for additional help

Just make up your sn name and a password. They don't bother me much since I have, to view this here.

I just did my first ever actual plug and wire change myself only. Tuesday night on my PT. I thought it would be a real pain. Had to go up the street 3 times to get correct parts because of poor planning.

It was not as hard as I thought it was going to be.

Once everything is out and your lifting the intake manifold (black piece) up. You will need to remove the wires one at a time. Wire then plug. BE CAREFUL, if these are stock wires, then they will stick. Watch out when they pop out of the holes, for lack of better terms. I cut my left index finger pretty bad when the last wire on the left popped and my hand flew up into the intake manifold piece while I was trying to remove it.
Wear gloves, like the latex kind. It sure helped me.
Also make sure to use Anitseise on plug threads and Dielectric grease on wire boots.

Heres a link if you want to see my finger. Well that sounds funny.
The gloves helped. Other wise I would have a grease filled finger. It was clean under the glove.
Looks better in pic then in person.
