i'd like to help you out, but i don't know how much different a firebird is from the camaro. Where the battery trays are (yes theres 2 trays) one with your battery and the other i think the firebirds had some sort of CAI anyway i just reached down between the fender and the battery. I have big arms though so i had to do fingertips. Also theres two plastic shields on the bottom you can yank the push pins and do it from underneath much easier!

For the rear you have to take out the hatch panels to get to them,for the front its easy from underneath,or find someone with a longer arm that can help you
