replacing valve cover gaskets

I have an 06 WRX that needs gasket replacing. I got the passenger side down but now I'm stumped on the driver side. Not sure how to get around the fuse box and there's very little clearance. Any tuts or suggestions? I've only been able to find vids for 05 and later models

youll need to temporarily relocated air pump, battery, and window washer (i think these are actually up front by bumper and dont need to be moved) it is indeed a tight fit, but give it some patience and pace yourself. place a rag over any exhaust to help reduce clouds of smoke upon startup. youll find yourself piecing together a weird extension setup
