    Two sets later, and I can't get the right set to fit.

    The old fogies at my local VW/Puegeot/Audi/Renault shop insisted Bosch 09091 are correct. I think they're for Audi 4000s.

    Anyone have a correct part number? Fitment guide?

    Thanks

    You can use 09005(rubber boots at plugs) or 09152(OE style metal ends at plugs)both of these fit pin or non-pin type caps. If you have a pin type cap and want oe style connectors at the cap side then order 09273(these also have the metal connectors at the plug end).
    09005


    09152


    09273

    you must unscrew the pin on the end of the spark plug to use regular ole wires.....

    otherwise get a $$$set and use the pins on the plugs like normal cars do

    Thanks! I guess 09091 are Audi-only....

    Right now, I have snap-on, snap-off Standard plug wires. Maybe I should have left well-enough alone

    SO I installed the 09091, and they fit. The car also runs.....I guess those Audi 4000 wires are ok? Or, should I switch to 09152?
