Anyone know how the hell one changes the spark plugs on a v6? The back 3 are easy, but the front 3. The fan and rad are in the way. Do I have to remove the front end to change the bloody things?

What year do you have? I just did my wifes 97 gt and the front were easy----it's the back ones that were a royal pain in the -----. Just what I liked doing---laying on top of the engine. Don't want to do that again for a long time. Any way, I used a short extension(4" I think) and they came right out.

a 6" wobble extension is your best friend on any transverse mounted GM V-6. It gives you just enough flexibility without letting your socket flop around too much

I got the first one out finally and discovered the dumbass at the store had sold me the wrong ones. So I plan to change them this coming weekend even though its meant to be 0C and snowing (last +20C)...damn Canadian weather.
