spark plug wires
Its time to replace my spark plug wires and the prices that I have found seem steep. I was priced between 100 and 150 dollars for a pair. Is this a good price and what brand would be the best?

I found some spark plugs on paragon-products for around $50. The description sounded good but the relatively low price scares me. I don't remember a stated brand but does anyone have any insight on these wires?

IIRC they were around $130, very nice wires though, Beru ends on quality wire and the construction is excellent, I'm very pleased with them.

The pricing default at the top of the pages are for the first item in a category listed - in many cases this will not match the price for the model you own - you must select from the listed applications to see the referenced product price. I apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
The wires in question are Kingsborne, and use proper BERU hardware.
Good Luck!

i got <a href="http://www.jacobselectronics.com/" target="_blank">jacobs</a> wires for ~$50. they seem pretty solid and you can fit the dust cap boot thingys from your old wires on them so they still seal up the cavity that the plugs sit in.
a lot of people seem to like the magnacore wires but i have also heard people say they are flimsy.

I second the opinion on the Jacob wires.
8.5 mm blue, still fits the stock guides (but barely!)
Well made, OEM fit, and have been working great, and less than $50 shipped to my door.
