New Coil install question

What are your thoughts for the difficult plugs... make the coil a 2 part install. Slide the coil boot over the plug then press on the coil?

I had to do exactly that on a couple of plugs, specifically the driver side center as the coolant/oil pipe to the turbo was in the way (did not want to remove). And also the toughest plug to replace for me was on the driver side closest to the front as the intake plastic pipe is in the way.

Thx. I did it on the drivers middle plug. I have upgraded silicon hoses, so I just bent them out of the way.

Project done and it runs great.
