Question

Was looking under my bonnet today and noticed that my HT leads are looking decidedly grubby and old. Knowing from the past with Cavaliers how sh!te leads can can cause starting problems come winter, I'll probably replace them soon.

So I went to ask in Halfords earlier.
They list Bosch leads for the sport in their flip charts, but they don't carry them in stock, and apparently can't order direct from Bosch. So they list them, but they don't stock them and can't get them - marvellous.
The parts desk guy said they do single leads, but they are "a bit crap" or they do a "good set" for £85!

So, anyone got any advice on what leads to get, and where to get them from?
Is it worth just getting them from Subaru? (any idea of cost?)

Car is a '98 Sport.

Not too sure where to try maybe larkspeed.co.uk. I've just bought some for my MY99 turbo direct from Subaru ( More fool me ) for a whopping £120 for the full set.

Spoons.

Halfrauds? Hmmm! I saw some godawful looking yellow leads when I was browsing there once. Nice to know that even the staff think they're Ratners...

Magnecor KV85 chap. Not sure whether the sport uses the same leads as the turbo, but I'm sure you'll be able to get a set to fit. You can get them from Demon Thieves, but this lot will do them at a much more reasonable price.
