Today I was looking at a spare wiring harness that came with my ti. I noticed there was still a camshaft position sensor attached.. My car needed one, so I decided to change it. I've read that it's necessary to remove the upper intake, so I took that as a challenge.

Changed the sensor without removing the intake! I didn't take anything apart. Thats right, it can be done!

Didn't splice anything. I reached under the intake past the throttle body with my left hand to unplug the old sensor then snaked it out. Dangled the new sensor down through the intake with my right hand while reaching past the oil filter housing with my left and grabbed the sensor, pulled that through a bit then while still holding the plug with my right hand I stuck my left past the throttle body and plugged in the new sensor. Wasn't all that hard, did it while the engine was still warm and barely even got burned!
