Default Changing spark Plugs

Ok, amongst the things I am gonna change on my car, I am gonna do the spark plugs. It seems hard to get to the back 3 plugs. Is there a easy way to get to these? I saw a thing about jacking the car up, putting a jack under the motor, and loosening the motor mounts, and pushing the engine forward towards the radiator. I dont really feel like doing all that, so if you have any other suggestions, please post. Thanks!

Dont need to jack the car up

unbolt the two top mount above the radaitor, on the engine side
one if not both mounts should have an extra hole in,
You will need a second person for this
push the car backwards so the engine will roll up towards the front of the car
once the bolt hole lines up with the mound hole put the bolt in
this will allow you to get to the back side of the engine to change the plugs

Wow! I never got mine rolled that far foward! But that is the best way to do it by rolling the engine forward.
