FYI,
NGK TR55IX Iridium plugs are on sale at CT this week for 15.99 a pair. They are cheaper than the Autolites and Motocraft plugs and a similar fine wire design.
FYI: I tried these a couple of years back and my car DID NOT like them at all. But my car did like the Bosch which lots of people don't like, so go figure.

Where do I get them and what department?

Might be worth checking out some body-shops ... see what they recommend.

You have to be nice to the parts person, make jokes and laugh, then say something like can you do better than that? If you don't ask for discount ... you will not get it
