Default Spark Plug Nightmare

What seemed like a simple job when I first thought about it has now become a bit of a nightmare.

I bought 6 lovely new spark plugs for my little 1989 7MGE Supra and of course I have managed to change 4 of them without any problems.

However, the remaining two seem to be buried under several tons of metal and hoses and God know what else.

Not a problem I thought, I would carefully dismantle this lump of engineering, change the plugs and then put it all back exactly as it was.

Locating all the bolts to undo is not a problem, getting a spanner or socket set to them is another matter. Most of them are easily accessible however, there are two which although I can see them there is no way I can get any access to them to undo them.

Is there any special trick to removing this lump of metal that I'm missing or do I need some sort of special tool like a spanner that can turn corners?



The arrow points to the area where the nut is that I simply cannot get to!!!
