Default pcv valve

I have honda civic 1999 4 dr se lxv engine d16y7
i want to replace my pcv valve .
I found it!!!..but i would like to know what is the easiest way to replace it.
If it is from the top..then how to get at it..since the fuel rail is on the way.
My pcv valve is 6 inches under the fuel rail and 4 inches on top of oil filter.
I went under the car, and had to take the oil filter to just to take a look.
From the top , i have to take the fuel rail.
Acces to pcv is difficult.
Please tell me the procedure to replace the pcv valve

I did the same job from the top of my 1997 D16Y7. It was a pain in the ars due to the limited space to work in. I think that it helped to remove the air filter box on the throttle body, as well as the throttle cable and bracket. I did not remove the fuel rail. An extra long pair of needle nose pliers is also helpful.
