Jay -

W7CC0 plugs are hard to find, but Bosch W7CC is an accepted replacement by
both Bosch & VW.  Some places use the Bosch 4 digit product number of 7598
in place of W7CC.

W7CC0 plugs aren't cheep - between $3.50 to $4.70 depending on where you
source them.  W7CC plugs are around $1.50 - $1.75.  I get the same lifespan
out of either one, so I usually go cheep.

If you're adamant about using W7CC0, I have some stashed away if you need
'em - $3.50ea plus postage.

The NGK number for this plug is B6ES (or BR6ES if you want a bit RFI
Resistance).  I have used either with no problems.
