Plug wires, which goes where ?

Spark Plug Wires Set: Bosch part# W0133-1829574 (part# 09850)
Set has 3 different lenghts w/ Diff. part #s:

9 of 0 356 912 948
4 of 0 356 912 950
2 of 0 356 912 952
1 of 0 356 912 954

So, which plug wire goes where ?

I know, just replace then one by one, etc., but, would like to know more specifically, which plug wire goes where ?

Thanks

If you are using factory wires, they will have a letter printed on the metal part of the coil wire (ie: G,K,L). You would then match that letter to the one that is visible on the valve cover.

Interesting. Seems that of the:
9 of 0 356 912 948, they are marked "G" (9 5/8");
4 of 0 356 912 950, they are marked "K" (10 3/8");
2 of 0 356 912 952, they are marked "H" (11 3/8"); and the
1 of 0 356 912 954, it is marked "L" (12 1/4").

Ruination, very good info. Thanks.
Will install them this weekend.
Again, thanks.

PS. Make mistake in my OP, and corrected it in case some poor soul in the future need this info.
