Dumb question-Plug Wires

Why are Bosch oem wires so expensive when Magnacors are about 1/3 less and supposedly better? I'd go for the Mags but I really want black for the stock look. Any suggestions?

are the 8.5mm magnacors overkill..

some guys like superman build their own wires.

Granted, the Magnacors are good. I'm just not a big fan of red and I don't like the idea of spending 265 vs 165 for stock Beru wires. It seems like it should be the other way around. ???

did you read the thread? superman gets bulk wire from his source and simply builds his own wires. if he has a bad beru end connector, he just buy a new one and screws it on. same with the distro end. i think he said something about 50 cents a foot. and yes, i think they are black.
