Help with 2.4 spark plug change

I removed the coil engine cover and say 4 rubber pieces that sit on top od the plugs. Couldnt seem to wiggle them off. How do they come off, or were they supposed to lift off with the cover and are stuck? Does Autozone carry the rubber parts if I break them?

They should just pull out. I used some channel locks to reach in and pull mine out when I did it.

They're not very expensive and usually available at parts stores. Try rotating them before pulling on them to prevent ripping them too much. If you rip one, replace it - or just buy all 4 before hand.
