I am trying to find some aftermarket spark plugs for my 2007 versa, but I can't find any with a 14mm Hex. The ones at the dealership are typically pricey so that is my last resort. I've already bought two different sets and both were 5/8 so theres a no-go.

this is the plug u want. i think denso is the only company that makes plugs for versa..not even ngk and they are iridium plugs that u have to put in so you cant stay away from paying a lot of plugs, you're just gonna have to deal with the price. putting any other plug like copper or platinum will mess with the ignition system.

I looked everywhere. I had to go to the dealer. But in reality what is expensive is labor. I did it myself so it was not bad. (it took me almost two hrs.)

The good news is that they last alot longer than regular spark plugs

80,000km (50,000 miles)?? Where did you find that info?
Normally nowadays spark plugs go for at least 100,000miles. And these are "long-life" plugs.

I'm going to attempt this weekend on changing my spark plugs. Any last minute advice?
