Looking at the video you only need a normal deep 10mm socket which is what I used on my Astra H 1.9, plugs look the same and I had no trouble, don't tighten them like the idiot on that video way too tight, they only need to be done gently, really to a specified torque.

I used a £5.72 Draper expert Hitorq 10mm deep socket here
