I have had trouble with Bosch spark plug wires in the past. I installed new Bosch wires and experienced a plug wire go bad with less than 3K miles on the set. I searched for an alternative plug wire set made specifically for the 2.1 WBX engine. I found what I was looking for in Magnecor Spark Plug Wires. http://www.magnecor.com/magnecor1/main.htm The #4521 8.5mm plug wire set for the 2.1 Vanagon is $60.00 from Alamo Motorsports. This includes the coil wire and four threaded caps for the spark plugs. They are correct length with good fitment. I am very pleased with this wire set.
