How much do you have to pay for Spark Plugs

KevinKA7 · 01-23-04, 05:58 AM

Yesterday I ordered a set of 6 new spark plugs for my car. I took NGK Platinum Laser, like recommended (PFR6G-11)

Here´s what they want for spark plugs in Germany:

Honda dealer:

BOSCH Platinum: n/a
NGK Laser Platinum: 25€ ($31,25) each

Aftermarket Shop:

BOSCH Platinum: 10€ ($12,5) each
NGK Laser Platinum 20€ ($25) each

After some "working on the staff" I got 6 NGKs for 87€ ($108,75).

How much do you pay for them? Compare BOSCH/NGK/BERU or whatever you buy. I recommend NGK only!

I use NGK coppers in my car for $2 a pop. I know that the OE platinum plugs used to run $17 each through the dealership. They're a waste of money IMO...copper ones work just as well, but just don't last as long.

Dutchman, those fully comprehensive social programs you
have in Europe have to be paid for.

Most of your cost for those plugs are taxes I would think. On the
other hand you enjoy excellent and probably free health care
among other social benefits. So...

Don't mean to stray from the subject but just thought I would
mention a few fact concerning cost of things in Europe.
