Spark Plug Replacement

Need some help. I got a 2000 Solara SLE (V6) and coming up on the mileage. I wanted to replace my spark plugs but for the life of me, I can't even see where they are. I think I know where the ones for the front 3 cylinders are but can't see where the rear 3 cylinders are. Any help in telling me where they are and how do I go about changing them myself. Be great if anyone can show me pics of the location. Thanks in advance to all.
