I get my plugs the other day and installed them today. It was a very easy painless install (<15 min). I concur with the others that this definitely adds some mid-range power, and smoother idle.

HOWEVER, my 4 plugs were (~$26) and the Advance Auto Parts clerk opened my 4-pack of plugs, and scanned each plug individually...!!!

Oh well, despite paying $21 more than everyone else, this was a great investment :)

Very nice Phots but I assumed that the plugs were good for 100.000 miles
am I wrong or is it just that you rather change them early. I will have to read the Owners Manual, My Last vehicle was a GMC Envoy and I didn't change the plugs untill 125.000 miles and my vehicle ran great the hole time.
I have a 2.4L engine

Plugs are good for a much longer time, but the reason for replacing them with upgraded plugs is for performance and MPG's. They are fine if you leave the old ones in 'till they go bad, but putting the Bosch plugs in will just be an added improvement, not required though...
