    I dont have the number, but, if you go into the auto parts store that
    sells them...they will look it up for you on thier computer. By the
    way, they DO make a difference. I put em in my 2002 SantaFe at 60,000
    miles and got better acceleration and 1 mpg more . P.S. I used to
    have WebTV and it was alright for a few years..but i have to say it
    was THE most aggravating thing ive ever owned with the way it
    operated . Of course this Sony Laptop im on now, has been a big money
    pit after just 1.5 years with the hard drive going out at 14 months in
    addition to viruses that ive gotton. At least with Webtv , the
    viruses are caught and stopped at the Corporate Office with thier hi-
    teck software which is good. I did like the Webtv Discussion Groups
    however and made some good chat friends on those .

    I compare my webtv to my Dell desktop with Vista. I never use the
    computer. With the webtv I can sit on the couch with a cat on my lap
    and don't have to wear my glasses to see the TV (monitor). When I go on
    line it takes about one minute (usually). The computer takes forever to
    boot up, get on line and display my email. It might be better if I had
    a high speed connection.

    I wouldn't install the bosch platinums if I were you. I've done it
    twice, and both times, once in an elantra, and once in a sonata, the
    plugs failed within a few thousand miles. The electrode just burned
    away up into the ceramic. Engine starts to miss/light-fire and run
    like crap thanks to the outrageous spark gap, and it probably doesn't
    do the ignition system much good either.

    I would suggest you get a set of NGK copper plugs and put those in
    there. Change every 36,000.

    That's an awful frequent change cycle for today's plugs.
