| Research has repeatedly shown that the number one consideration customers look for when recommending / fitting a spark plug is OE fitment. OE fitment means that the plug has met many rigorous quality checks and meets the original standards demanded by the vehicle manufacturer. |
OE fitment gives the installer / distributor complete confidence that the plug, when fitted, is the correct plug for the engine, that it will perform well and most importantly not give a problem.
