The stock OEM plug changed at the OEM interval is all that's required. JTIS is the computer based factory service manual. Lots of links to it if you search.

The plugs are very easy. The most important thing is to use the correct torque spec's when you install the plugs so you dont damage the threads and end up with a serious problem. So you need to buy a torque wrench and a nice spark plug socket which will make life easier, I use the snap on spark plug sockets. I also put a very small amount of anti sieze on the plug threads.
