Hope you guys and gals are all doing well!

Time to replace plug wires on my 1.7 D-Jet and was wondering on opinions of the group.

Some sets seem suspiciously cheap like $25 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

I came across these NGK wires that seemed priced more in line with good quality...

input appreciated!

I did search through the forum but a lot of the threads were 10+ years old with some manufacturers NLA.

Just bought a Clewett Engineering set. They are pretty darn nice. They have an extra nylon sheath over the silicone. Large numbered wires. Not sure if they are any better than a NGK set?

I just passed on an old set of clewett, the set may have been abused but I couldn't get over the cheap, dirt magnet, torn, nappy, all falling apart sheath.
