Spark Plugs - source for genuine Bosch?

[Ndx]

Hi Guys,

I need to replace plugs on both cars ...
Both I believe are are Bosch from Factory

Any good source for legit Bosch plugs

Dealer is asking 20$ each ... Maybe I should just splurge for that ...

RA - is like 4.50$ each lol...

Both cars are v8 so nice saving

Bosch FGR-5-NQE-04
Bosch ZR5TPP330A

I would trust RockAuto before an unknown Amazon or eBay seller on frequently counterfeited items.

Autozone
Advance Auto
O'Reilly's

All are probably somewhere in the middle.

Autozone: Bosch Super Plus Copper Spark Plug FGR5NQE04 $12.99 as an example.

Get them direct from any major retailer, not some 3rd party on amazon or ebay. There's no way I'd pay a dealer $20 a pop unless it was the last place on earth that had any spark plugs. I'd switch brands before I did that, unless you have evidence that the engines involved are picky and then go from there.

So

Autozone
Advance Auto
O'Reilly's

And then Rock Auto?

Thx guys

I don't even trust First party amazon too many problems with FBA stock being mixed with the Amazon stock and people getting counterfeits.

I would do Rock Auto first before those retailers, but then again Rock Auto is basically a drop shipper, but the vendors they drop ship from should be legit. Sometimes Autozone is cheaper once you use their 20% off coupon and sometimes Advance is cheaper.

But in your case, maybe consider FCP Euro. They carry your plugs in a similar price range and they do a lifetime warranty on all the parts they sell, you just have to return the old plugs.

If it says "geniuane" on the box, I would be skeptical.

Yes, if you can't find them a dealership you can live with? That $4.50 seems too good to be true. $12.99 seems legit.

I'd make sure and put whatever the owner's manual specified. If I may ask, what kind of car is this?

Get them locally. Napa, Orileys.

 

[slacktide_bitog]

Rock Auto often uses the same warehouses the independent parts stores and shops use, and sometimes they even ship directly from the mfr. Either way, Rock Auto is 100% legit

Napa, Autozone, and AAP are also good places to buy them from

I've also heard good things about FCP Euro

FCP Euro
AutohausAZ
RM European
eeuroparts

I just did a quick search, and it looks like FCP is killing it on price for these plugs. Can't beat their lifetime warranty.
