I just put in a set of Karlyn wires from Pelican, Nice set of wires all marked like the OEM ones, I did notice a little radio interference, but that's ok 'cause I never listen to the radio anyway, and they made a real difference in restoring some zip to my 3.6

I bought the OEM Beru set this year. There are cheaper ways to go of course, but they fit exactly, have the RFI suppression braiding, and quality connectors. My original set lasted 20 years...what more can you ask for?

I would stick with OEM Beru wires. Most aftermarket varieties cant handle the heat levels, and/or are cheaply made.

All ignition cables glow with an induced surface charge and will not be eliminated with the installation of new OEM or aftermarket cables.

If, on the other hand, you insist on replacing them, as a feel good thing, then prepare to be disappointed when you turn off the lights in your garage to see the light show continue.

You can't do better than Magnecors. They make their own connectors rather than using the lousy Beru items.
