Spark plug wire question

[Joe Wilson]

Hi, Guys,
I hate to bother you with silly questions, but I haven't run into this before. I bought a new set of plug wires for my 96 Cavalier 2.2 and started to install them. I was trying to change them from above, which I know you say not to do. My problem is that I can't get the plug wires to pull out of the coil. Is there something holding the wires in or am I just not pulling hard enough? I didn't want to pull too hard for fear of damaging something. Thanks, Joe

The wires pullout towards the rear of the car, not up. Nothing holds them on.
