Yep. That's what I figure, a set of 2 for each Jeep will last me for a long time!

Well, they technically are still available at about 40 bucks a plug from the china connection via evilbay. They have the -1 and -2 for the flat heads and the F heads etc, but no -3s for the mules and Mites.
40 bucks hurts quite a bit when you need 6. I would think a run of 20k units would be marketable for 10-20 bucks range. But cost your talking putting up your house to front the order.
Then wholesale them off to the hand full of parts distributors with an MSRP agreed upon so nobody really corners the market.
And don't forget, two models are really required to cover almost all the usual vehicles. That's 40k plugs now what to do....
After having a couple Chinese coils crap out fast on me, I kinda don't trust the china model plugs on evilbay....
