You'll need to check the size of those plugs. Remove all paneling and covers necessary.
If you have an N54 or N55 (2006+ E Chassis), you need this 12 point socket.
Otherwise you need a 14mm 12 point socket.
Although I've never heard of anyone using a 5/8" 12 point on any n54. It's probable it could work. Normal sockets do not fit. Not even snapons.
Here's the thing. You're gonna need a torque wrench.
