been looking around for some new leads as i have a miss match of leads on my car now and they'r all getting a bit past their best!(arcing out)
the only ones i can find are ultra blues at a stupid £150!!!
and wanky crappy bullshit shoddy rip off magnecors:slap:
what else is there apart from oem? cant even find trd leads any more!
any one got any suggestions? is it possible to get oem copy leads made by a reputable company such as ngk or bosch.....something realisticly priced would be nice.
thanks.

no mate what i mean is magnecors are a rip off, the ends are just really badly crimped on, and build quality is poor.
the last set i had the end fell of the king lead after a few days, not very funny when they cost me like 80 odd quid!, i had to cut the rubber boot crimp the end back on to get me going again, so that screwed the waranty but i had no choice at the time:( then a few weeks later it developed a miss fire as one of the leads was arcing across the cam cover,
i now have a miss match consisting off some old splitfire leads and magnecor 85's
i really dont want to go through all that again thanks!
