Wouldn't you get away with using a deep socket? If you think it'll work, try using one of the new spark plugs as a guide to size

It says summit about usin' a spark plug spanner, suitable box spanner or a deep socket and extension bar. Hope that helps

Can't see anything, but I presume they're pretty much all the same. Had a look in the tools section and it doesn't say.

No problem, mind that extension bar as well. Ye'll need it to reach the socket

I've heard of it being done on a KV6 using an extension on the spark plug socket and with no need to remove the manifold. Never done it myself though...
