mazdatrix sparkplug wires

Bought the red wires from them. They are soooo long. Are they suppose to be like this? Anyone has them on their FB? Now the wires are all over the place.

Makes no sense why they would sell a poorly fitting wire set. I would call them and ask why their set doesn't fit well. Fwiw, the OEM wire set works fine.

Is Mazda still selling wire sets for 1st gens? I know aftermarkets are easy to get (running some now) but I wouldn't mind having a set of colored-cap OEM wires.

not sure about the mazda dealer but NGK wires are still available at a import shop in Eagle Rock. Inexpensive but good (never had any problem with them).
