IMO they are really not that bad as they are. the only thing you need is an extension on the socket to unscrew the cap. if you want to see a really hard one to work on look at 95 jimmy/blazer with a 4.3 6cyl motor...you cant even see what you are working on.  the one on our years even sound a lot easier to work on than the optispark.
