More on Spark Plug replacement ?

Got through replacing the drivers side plugs and now I'm starting the other side with the coils. I tried pulling just the black box between throttlebody and air filter flex rubber couplings. It has an electrical harness attached to it and I cannot pull it far enough away to access the coils.
My question is how much if not all of the air intake has to come off to make room for wrenching the coils and plugs ?

taking out the air intake out isn't hard. throttle body i don't know but about air intake, i'm a newbie and i never done it before. but it's basically taking out the hoses and unscrewing screws and that's it.

Figured it out -

I figured it out. You can pull just the black air box out from between the rubber flex air intake tubes. I had to disconnected one electrical harness clip on the front flex tube then the box could be set over to the side leaving lots of room.
