How easy are these to replace? Stealer said a few of mine had deteriorated and were causing a lumpy idle via a misfire and that i should replace them all?

I did my plugs and wires at a little over 50K miles. I got the whole set of wires for around $160 on parts.com, if memory serves me right.

Can all the plugs from parts.com also, and should I be able to do the plugs myself? I'm at 99k right now and I kind of noticed a small sputter at an idle the other day...

What are some obvious signs of bad spark plug wires? Car just hit 100k like I said and I'm going to do the plugs this week......trying to decide whether or not I should just buy the wires and do them at the same time or see how much longer they will last

If you are in there, you might as well do it.

300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
The wires last longer than
100k miles. They are not 100k replacement items nor items replaced every plug change at 5years.
If for some reason you think it is damaged by abuse (like yanking it off the plug by hand) or heat(rarely) test it for proper resistance with your multimeter.
Don't use multi tip plugs,don't use anti-seize,use a swivel socket spark socket,use the 17mm boot tool.Flip the tool around and use it to pop the metal collared boots back onto the plug.
Easy job on a Saturday morning.

Sorry to bump, I was gonna tackle plugs myself on the SL but scraped all my knuckles.

Should I just do the wires while im at it? I see Bremi wires for 160$ Anyone use these?

I'd leave the wires be if they don't cause you troubles. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

He's insisting I get the wires, I don't feel like it and they looked fine to me when I inspected them as well.
Feel like he won't change my plugs if i come w/o wires hahaha
