I think everyone knows how much of a pain in the as$ those retaining clips are on the plugs. Well, while on my junkyard route today, I had an idea. The 95+ mitsubishi's did away with the clips and started using plugs that do NOT use them. They are nice and simple to use and are a lot sturdier than the CA ones. I am going to wire these in place of the factory ones hopefully for some ease of injector replacement down the road.

I got them off a '95 GS (non-turbo). You can get them off ANY '95+ mitsubishi. Or even some '95+ Dodges. Look at Galants, Diamantes, Monteros, Mirages, Eclipse, Neons, Avengers, Sebrings. All of those SHOULD have them.
