Default bosch double platinums

I purch bosch double platinums for my 93 civic (autozone) just before it died out, and never got to installed them. Now i just purchased a 96 civic, are they compatible spark plugs with this model?

spark plugs are cheap, go engine specific :cheers: Nothin wrong with the doubles on a stock configuration though. I run the Bosch Platinum +4's with an aftermarket ignition system, no probs here.

Save money and go with the oem NGK's. They work great. Can you return the Bosch's?

Pop the hood and look at the emissions sticker. It will have the spark plug type listed right there.

I personally would never use those funky aftermarket plugs. OEM NGK for me.

i have learned that peeps have more problems putting those dam german and american spark plugs in japanese cars epsecially if you don't have an aftermarket ignition. Stick with oem NGK plugs and wires for better results.
