1997 E320 How many spark plug wires do I need?

I'm having a tune-up done on my 97 E320. I'm having all 3 coil packs replaced, and new spark plug wires. I know I need 3 Coil Packs, but how many spark plug wires are needed? I've noticed they only come in 3, shown in this link. Do I need 3 of those wires or 6?

These are the Coil Packs I plan on getting as well,

I think I've figured it out, there's 3 spark plug wires, I posted the link to the spark plug wires it in my first post. Spark Plug wires connect to spark plugs 1 3 5 I believe. The Ignition packs connect to the spark plugs 2 4 6 with a boot, I dont think the ignition packs come with a boot and must be bought separately. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong.
