| Help Matt....I finally pulled out the Boush Four Platinum and they are
the
| wrong size. Do or anyone have the correct number for the 4.7. I
compared
| the length and the idiot a couple months back sold me the wrong ones.

DITTO!!!! I spent an hour with my buddy at the main autozone store in the
area. They don't carry Autolite and they don't cross to Bosch even though
they carry Bosch. I figured since they didn't have the 3923's I'd try to
get a Champion RC9Y equivalent in the Bosch +4's. We couldn't do it....
The stock plug for us is a 4418 which in a regular Platinum would be an
FR8LPX

I'm still not certain of this as the L is an EXTRA Extended Tip plug. I
never remember Chrysler using Extended Tip plugs muchless EXTRA Extended
Tip!

There is no +4 equivalent. And wouldn't want it anyway since I wanna run a
colder plug. But I couldn't find a colder version either. It started to
get busy so I gave up and let my friend get back to work.

So Matt!!! Which number did you use??? I'm sure there is something that
will work since many BMW's run 14mm 3/4" reach plugs like Mopar V8's. SO
its a family of size and heat ranges Bosch definitely makes plugs for.

My friend is a skeptic and doesn't care about selling me plugs. He's
actually hardcore sold on the +4's. He says they are the only plug he's
every sold that people love and claim improvements. He says with every
other "gimmick" plug like SplitFires and such, people come back and
complain. The other nice part. They were only $1.75 a piece for the "Hot
New Thing".

I ran out of time to run by Poop Boys and see if they carried Autolites.
I'm positive they did last time I bought plugs for other cars.
