+1 on the "wedge"

Marc, if you want PayPal now I can do that. I don't want you extending too much $CDN if you're not comfy. Just let me know.

...but good to know that the wires look good and seem genuine.

I got an email from them to all about my order so I was worried but they just wanted to confirm a shipping address.

No problems.

I want to be sure everything arrives okay before collecting $ in case things do not get shipped as planned and then we all lose on PayPal fees if I have to refund people.

Besides, with the wires being shipped to different places, everyone's total bill will vary slightly based on shippping costs.

I noticed the wires ends or boots (or whatever those things in L shape are called) are one solid piece so if the wire is bad you'll need to replace it all. You can't just replace the spark plug connector.

Really? I thought the ends "screwed" on/off.

There should be a crimped pin on the wire with the tip threaded like this.

Is it possible that Beru changed the design over the years or may offer two different types. I can't imagine anyone spending such time to manufacture knock-offs on such a limited used item.

I believe they would unscrew at the red circled areas. The wire likely goes in all the way to the main body where it threads in.

Oh man, I just saw that photo also. I almost choked on my coffee I laughed so hard. I mean what you do with your spark plug wires in the privacy of your own home is your business...
