    You can use NGK but our engines were designed for Denso non iridiums. They are sold from the dealership for just over a dollar a plug.

    The only reason some motors came with half denso and half NGK was half of it was assembled in a different location and used cheaper parts to cut cost down.

    Rockauto.com like $25 for wires

    Dont blame you there, but i knew mine was time to be replaced so i went ahead and did it anyway and it runs even better!

    Taco me elmo: I pulled all NGk out of my moms truck which had never had the plugs changed before. but mine came out with half and half

    I had half Denso and half NGK off the sale lot.

    Then Toyota swapped to all Denso from there on out. I now do them myself and will stick to all Denso.

    They are hella micro de's they are amazing, the beam pattern is a projector cut off just under the headlight beam and nice and wide. il try to take a few night shots.

    I changed the bulb to hella yellow, they are a slight yellow color... nothing intense like the ricers.
