I bought mine at wally world too, easiest and slightly cheaper place to get them, I didnt have to deal with the bull you get from auto shops. What a pain it is to install in the grand prix though took me about an hour and half to install, the boots were like welded onto the factory plugs, oh yah it is also was dark so that added to the fun. Back when I owned a saturn it took about 10 minutes to change the plugs.

hmmmmm. I've only dealt in OE's, they're all sleeved. My bad for assuming. I still wouldn't recommend gapping, but I know what you're saying

I used the small round thing to gap mine, I had the NGK iridiums and they had the cardboard at the end, 3 were .60 on the dot, the other 3 were between 58-61, I checked the gauge and the plugs after gapping them and didnt notice any scratching or peel, unless you cranked on it (your supposed to be VERY gentle gapping plugs) I cant see it being a problem.
