Went to Baxter Auto Parts and bought the Ulysses NGK DPR8EA-9 medium plugs (2) and brought them home. Take them out of the box and they look like this.

See how it is threaded at both ends. Why isn't there a cap, like on most plugs, on the end that attaches to your wires? Why are these plugs unlike the plugs I usually buy for cars?

DPR8EA are threaded tops and DCPR8E are probably the ones you want. I use the 9's on my M2. And now I'm going to try the 10R12X plugs as they have a coating on the plugs for removal ease and are less prone to fouling I guess.
