    Elite Or Plus?
    Is it worth the extra $30 for the Elites?

    I have no idea which ones to choose. I don't remember which ones I have. They are about 10 years old and still work of the balls whichever you decide you will be happy with in my opinion

    I have the elites. They’re great. Just cause I didn’t want black. Also get and extra year of warranty. Either is a great choice.

    I bought the regular ones, $30 extra isn't worth it for it to be shiny and sit in your engine bay where they are rarely seen.
