Is there a simple way of changing the back three spark plugs?

I'm no mechanic but my 91 year old GrandPa thinks I am and has insisted I change his spark plugs. The front three were a breeze, not an easy breeze but a little air flow. Two hours have elapsed and I cannot remove the ones from the back. Heck, I can barely find the wretched things. Is there any hope? He loves his car but I'm ready to torch the old bucket. Thanks>

No simple way you reach over coil and have at them a swivel and extension will help

You can remove the coil pack, just mark the wires and plugs.
