Default Spark plug wires.

Hey guys, Just about to order some Magnecor wires for my 98 Disco and was wondering how i could fit the 8mm Wires. is there really that big of a difference from using 7mm to 8mm wires? If not il just order the 7mm and save 7 bucks. but if it does make a difference how do i fit them in the stock wire looms?

Apparently the 8mm work the same they will just last a lot longer with more insulation than the 7mm.

I've put them in my D1 and they fit no problem. i bought some extra floating clips to make them neater as well.

the 8mm stands up better to the heat that our aluminum blocks disperse. however some people have had problems with the 8mm on their D1's. Not everyone but some on here said they got misfires, some others also said they got misfired when running bosch +4 plat plugs and went back to the Champion cheap plugs.... so i guess its just good to know some D1's are picky.
