NGK (6290) PFR6H-10 Laser Platinum Spark Plug, Pack of 1

This is the OEM spark plug for 2002 and older Saab 9-3s. The ignition system is specifically designed for NGK plugs and any other will not work as well and may ruin your ignition cassette.

These nicer spark plugs are pretty much required in Saabs after 1999. So I just bought what I was told and the car is running fine.The way they were sent, the plugs were in small boxes somewhat loose inside a bigger box. The smaller boxes all opened and and all the spark plugs were loose when the package arrived. Luckily, I had just bought a gap tool and was able to see the factory gaps were not compromised.

Arrived quickly and undamaged. Necessary for my 02' saab 9-5 aero, so pretty much necessary for any Trionic 7 car.

Installed on my 2003 Saab 93 convertible. Working great.

I replaced my old spark plugs (same plug) with these and have no issues. I bought my car used with 124K on the odometer and the old plugs were pretty burnt up. Plugs were packed well enough to prevent any damage and I received them prior to the EDD. Can't say anything negative.

Just as advertised, original OEM part for my car.

Wow!Made a big difference in my Saabs MPG!I didn't think the old plugs were that bad!

The plugs look like the ones ordered, and as such should work well in the car. They are what they are. One complaint which others have made is that the packaging lets them bounce around in the too big box with little cushioning. This results in them sometimes coming out of the protective cardboard that is on the threads and (it looks like) result in a bent electrode and closed gap. Not what you want.BUT... it took took too many calls and shipments to get them to me. Thank goodness I only ordered 4 plugs (Saab 2.3 T Aero - 2005) ... it took 3 deliveries and about a month!!! There is no value in describing details of multiple calls and shipments. Amazon DID try to help..they really did, and in fact managed to get it straightened out eventually including the correct billing. To be fair, this mess did occur over the busy Holiday season.... but still?It was obviously influenced by a computer, since a human would have (hopefully) inferred that or called to determine if a shipment of 1 or 2 plugs was helpful. NOT!This is one case of the few times I regretted opting for Internet/Amazon to provide a product for a small savings and what should have been a quick/simple delivery. It does happen....The product I received gets 4 stars (bent electrode/packaging) ...but think twice if you want need them quickly.Update July 2013: The plugs have worked just fine in the Saab. I forgot the silliness it took to get them.
