You can get the NGK plugs at any car store, probably at around the same price, ~$2/each part number ZFR5F-11. Wires would be around $70 online or mayber you will be able to find someplace local.
To replace the knock sensor. You need to remove the intake manifold and the coolant hose that runs accross the sensor.
You can get NGK wires for $58.42 /LS or $34.95/RS from Nopi
Cheapest Ive found them so far and i spend lots of time on the net searching dumb stuff like this LOL
I just ordered a set of spark plug cables from Rock Auto (www.Rockauto.com).
NGK part # 9669 $ 66.65
They also had good prices on brake pads and those pistony things that hold the trunk up ( Pep boys, etc wanted $35 for those things. Got them at Rock Auto for $22.50).
Get boosted... nobody really tells where to buy the plugs and wires, and i try and block out ads on websites... don't look at them at all... :-/
funzie... the problem i'm really having is that when i take off the coolant hozes, the knock sensor is almost underneath this metal plate like thing, only a small hole to get at it, and i have no idea what could get it out... the plate is the piece that the rubber thing that wraps around the knock sensor wiring sits in
