[W126 Coupe] spark plugs

[Rusty Cullens]

Mercedes may have them but Bosch does not, Bosch only sells HR9DC.

  Well now I'm confused.  I called the local dealer, who says they have the H9DC0's in stock, which replaced the original H8DC0's, and they are about $3/apiece.  I thought people were saying that Bosch wasn't making the non-resistor plugs anymore and that's why we had to look for ones like the NGK?  But at more than double the price....

  I think when I get my antenna grommets at the dealer this weekend I'll look at the plugs they set aside to make sure they don't have HR9 printed on them....

      Does anybody here use NGK spark plugs in their cars, and if so, where do they get them from?

      I understand our Bosch non-resistor plugs are not available, so Jonathan recommended NGK BP6EFS to me on my 300SEL, but I can't find them anywhere.  I've checked on line, called a few local parts places, etc.  The online tools come up with plugs that all appear to be resistor plugs (very helpful, eh?) and the one guy I just talked to said they could try ordering directly from the factory, but I thought it can't be this hard, can it?

      Any sources?
