Default Replacement PLUG WIRES for 03 Disco

HELP ----
I have a misfire with my #7 plug wire and need to replace it. The Land Rover dealership will sell the #7 wire to me for $47 but the Napa Auto Parts store will sell me the complete set of replacement wires for $34. Thoughts??

Do I have to use OEM replacement wires? Please post your suggestions ASAP.

Thanks! -RIC

If you have over 75,000 miles, buy a complete set of 8 mm STI wires from British Parts of Utah for $70 and do your engine a favor. Never replace one wire cause if one is leaking, they are all about to.
No, never your use Rovers wires, they are pure crap.

STI's are not a waste of money, in this market, you do get what you pay for.

Mike, we posted at the same time. I was not referring to your post, rather to the dealer or Napa charge for a single wire - that would be a waste of money.
STI wires are good as well.
My point was actually why pay $34 for 1 wire if you can get a new set of wires for $70?
