arent leads simply leads at the end of the day..? maybe the expensive ones might be less likely to breakdown, but....

to me it seems a bit of a con, all the jap boys get them, along with "special" radiator caps, coolant caps etc..

 

[m4rkie23]

no idea. the end of the day they prob are the same, but your buying something that you know is good quality and peopl have used them and recommended them.
if the guy wants a quick answer, he got one.
if he was the kind of guy to do loads of research into it, he may have been able to save a few quid, but he has got good leads, best price for that type, no hassle, and they will work. so imo, worth it.

(hope that doesnt sound like a rant, cuz it isnt meant to be one lol)
