Hi Folks,
I'm needing a set of spare spark plug wires. I want factory look wires with the orange/brown connecotr and normal boots. I just received some new STI wires but what was sent did not match the pic! Anyone know where I can get them? Thanks |

Try and find sets made by Karlyn (Bremi)or Beru. They were original suppliers.

I just put a set of the Beru wires from AA on and they fit pretty well and look nice. They did seem a bit long but no too bad.

You can still find the orange/brown colored bake-lite insulator connectors if you look around. They can be screwed on to any 7mm spark plug wire. I recently bought a set of Pertronix wires for a Type 1 engine and cut the connectors that came on them and replaced with the factory connectors. Worked great.

we have plenty of sets for both the 2.0 and the 1.7 1.8 that will pass the strictest concours inspection

Thanks for all the input. Decided to just keep the STI wires for now. They are longer and look different but they work.
