You can either access it through the driver side wheel well with the tire off, or from underneath. I usually go through the driver side wheel well, but even then it is super tight! I am relatively skinny with long arms so it's not too bad, but tough nevertheless. There will also be a heatshield in place, but it's a non-issue to get out of the way. I would also recommend leaving the connector in place (do not disconnect) until the bolt is all of the way loose, and the sensor is out of the hole, you do not want to drop it in the bell housing! The same thing for installation. Here are some pictures that I've illustrated.
