[W126 Coupe] question about spark plugs

[Jason Mavris]

The tips should unscrew (although I cant speak for that brand of plug), and 
you will see the screw threads like your talking about on the bosh plugs. 
and will allow you to connect them to the boot wires.  You may have to use 
pliers to remove them.  Just be very careful not to nick or hit the 
porcelain.
