Seventy dollars??? Damn. I realize that's Canadian dollars, not US, but your
dollar is a lot stronger against ours now than it was just a few years ago.
Right now, CDN$70 is about US$62 -- and that's a *hell* of a high price for
spark plug wires. Especially for a 4-cylinder engine.

For comparison, I just bought a set for my Suburban at a local auto parts
store last weekend -- and that's a V-8 engine, twice as many wires -- for
US$25 (= CDN$28 and change).
