Are there any videos and/or active photos on how to correctly locate and change the spark plugs on a 2004 545i

Have you perhaps tried looking in the DIY section of the forum? I know there is one there for the 530 sparkplug change (I used that one when I did mine) - there is probably one for the 545 as well. Sometimes search is your best friend

Very detailed for 530i https://5series.net/forums/topic/919...k-plug-change/

545i:

For cyl8, remove the plastic holder for the red positive cable that goes to the positive terminal under the hood (it's right near the cylinder).

Thanks Everyone! I have been searching all day for a 545i video and/or pictures, but for some reason I am not able to view some of the pdf files. My question is "Are the spark plugs for the 545i located up under the top large engine cover or the 2 side engine smaller covers? I Know plugs 4 and 8 are going to be a pain....
