Not sure if you have to remove the intake manifold. According to the namual, you don't. The manual state the following two steps.
1.Cable to glow plugs ...........Disconnect
2.Pencil type glow plugs........Remove, intall.

To easy to be true. If you tackle this your self, soke the glow plugs the night before with penetrating oil to loosen and make it easy. Use a 3/8 drive socket with a universal or ball joint. Go easy and do not strip the head. If one won't budge, don't strip the GP head. Not sure what you may need to remove.

Good luck

I dont mean to sound dumb, but where exactly are the GPs located? I see 2 wired going into each cylinder, is that them?
