Took about 2 hours this morning and everything was pretty straightforward.
On the belt, there's not slot of slop so pull it off of the idler pulley first while removing it. When putting it on wrap it around the tensioner pulley first then route it and slide it over the idler pulley last. The belt I took off looked perfect after 100k miles but I changed it anyway.
On the spark plugs, its a little tight but not as bad as I thought it would be. On the connectors on the coils, wiggle the light grey parts side to side while sliding back. Once they are back you can depress the little lock and remove the connector. On one of the connectors the little rubber part became dislodged and wouldn't let the connector reinstall like it should. Don't force them, if the don't slide on relatively easy look at the connector and coil to be sure that little rubber part is where it should be.
Your going to want to use multiple small extensions when removing and installing the plugs. Have a magnetic tool handy for some of the coil bolts an other stuff.
Like I said, not too difficult just had to use my hands from the front or side of the car to change leverage depending on the situation.
Also tore up the foam over the high pressure pump on the drivers side so becareful but its probably because of age, it felt kind of stiff.
