I just replaced mine with oem ones for ECS. Better price than the dealer and fast shipping..

i think Tischer sells plugs too.

don't get any colder plugs as they haven't been proven to make any difference.

stick with OEM.

ECS has two same part #'s but one has bmw logo on lugs and $30 price difference, is there a difference.

Probaly just the logo, I got some on Monday. Paid 64bux shipped...

It's the samething. The interesting thing is on www.sparkplugs.com you can get like a autolite brand plug for $6.69 each. So its like $40 + shipping.

I would assume Bosch is a better plug though.

I don't know if this is any cheaper but I ordered from these guys and got free shipping. It's the OEM plug.
