I'm at work, my car's top end is completely dismantled, I'm ready to put in the new wires and... THEY DON'T FIT?!?!  What gives? The boots don't reach into the holes, they aren't even the same type! Anyone else have these plug wires? Any quick help is appreciated.

HaHa...buy Ford parts and you won't have this problem in the future  . Sounds like a huge hassle for all that 0hp you'll get from them!

Indeed. Thanks for the moral support, BTW.
That's what I get for trying to go a step beyond stock all the time. Nothing's simple for me when it comes to this car...
Looks like it's going back together with the old wires still in. I'm sure theres no way these things will fit. Funny thing is, each boot says "Ford" on it. Huh.

nice way to make him more frustrated, let's all point and laugh....that's just wrong. sorry to hear they don't fit, my magnecors are not all that great of a fit either but they have not given me problems yet...how much did you spend on the taylors? i say get a refund and some magnecors.
that last comment did not seem like english, maybe star trek talk...unless you guys know each other and are messin around. oh well.

I'm not exactly a champ on OEM pricing, but I would think that the price for OEM wires would not rank too far off of Magnecors. The reason I chose the Magnecors is because they have a lifetime warranty, have a great reputation for quality, are supposed to last basically "forever", and it is a hassle to change the wires in the first place. So I change them once and don't worry about it for a long time.

Actually I think the Magnecors are almost double what the oem ones cost but they're well worth the money IMO.

ok, basically just did a quick search on fordpartsonline.com and saw they run from 100-120. That's exactly how much I paid for Magnecors. My OEM wires were out shortly after I got my car at 33,000. That doesn't seem to say much about them.
