Hey, new here... need opinion on wireset

Hey all, I'm new to the board. I am wondering if there are any good recommendations for a set of spark plug wires. hparts.com seems to want to charge me $18 + 5.11 shipping per wire
Also, any cheap places for OEM or better distributor cap / rotor?

Appreciate it.

What year is your car?

01/02/03 CL and CLS have a distributorless ignition. Not your standard plug wires. They are coil-on plug wires.

Don't know many companies, if any that carry performance coil-on plug wires.

I am guessing he has a first gen since his Nick says 30CL in it. I am not a brain surgeon, but I am observant!!!!!!

He's right about the newer gens. But for your model, I think 18+ shipping sounds very reasonable. I wish we could get some sort of aftermarket part for our coil-plugs, but I haven't seen any. Hope that you get them and please post pics if you do!

yes, it's a 98

and it's ($18 + 5.11) * 6 wires = over $100 for the set!!!

I saw the set for $90 at another place online but down to $60 for a set of Bosch wires... BTW are they good?

Thx.
