Hey guys, what are the best spark plugs to get that are not too expensive? mk3 8v gti... and what size Socket do i need to remove them?

BOSCH Platinum Spark Plugs are good and not ridiculously priced. You'll need a deep spark plug specific socket, it's 16mm iirc?

Halfords will do the socket right?

where the best place to buy them sparks from? ebay? halfords? Tesco? 

cheers m8

Yeah i bought my various plug socket sizes from Halfords years ago, before i even knew about tinterweb shopping etc. Their tools are actually pretty good and i've only broke a few items out of many and that was down to me giving them abuse lol
Screwfix and machinemart are both good as well, screwfix been cheaper of the three.
But if you're in no desperate rush id opt for Ebay, ive had some real tool bargains on there.
