Plug leads

good afternoon all, whilst refitting the plug leads on my v12 I wondered if anyone has worked out an order so as to make a neat job of things? Also any recommendations for a new set? Much obliged

Hi,

I got my set from RockAuto.com, great service and good price. The set I chose was the NGK, I think this was the set although it was nine months back when I did mine so these may be a newer/different set by now :-

As for the configuration there is a technical bulletin from Jaguar I think or I saw one that was posted on this site somewhere - you would have to do a search.

I've tried but ran out of patience. I've seen some very tidy arrangements so it's doable....but I can't give an specifics, sorry

Magnacore is the usual favorite. High grade stuff.

Personally. I've had perfectly good results with OEM 'Rists' brand and Bosch aftermarket so I've never been inclined to step-up to the Magnacore.
