NGK BUR9EQ Availability??
 

So, I wanted to change out my plugs yesterday on my FD and stopped at the local Checker Auto parts store (now O'Reilly) and was told that the NGK BUR9EQ plugs (part 5483) are no longer a Standard Part item and would need to be "special ordered." They offered a 5777 plug as a replacement, but those have an electrode, so I was a little uncomfortable using those. Also went across the street to Autozone and was given a similar story. Anyone else experience something similar? I just bought a set last Fall from them, so this must be a fairly new turn of events.

Just an FYI...

Looks like I may have just answered my own question. When I look on the NGK website they show the 5777 as having an electrode, but when you dive deeper into the product description it shows a standard rotary plug. Would be nice if they could correct that top level image that's shown in most product descriptions.

parts stores stock the parts that they sell (well that's the idea anyways), so if they do not stock something its because people don't buy it.

I believe they changed the product number in the last year or so.
