I notice two different metals used. Which one is better and why?

Moved to General Discussion.

They're the same exact plug. What you're seeing is a difference in picture quality, or more specifically, lighting.

scootertronic's must have a much higher overhead cost than Bob's . You could probably save shipping costs by buying it locally , just take the NGK number to your nearest auto parts store . Good luck .

Actually, I need to wake up a bit. I didn't even look at the price. The one listed at Scootertronics shows a picture of an iridium plug. The C7HSA is NOT an irridium.

If that's the price for a four pack of C7HSA plugs, then that's a good price. If it's for just one plug then it's a rip off.

NGK C7HSA plugs can and should be bought locally. If local isn't an option, I'd go with that Bob place.

They are both using the same generic stock image for all/most of their plugs (do a search for plugs and you'll see). It's lazy but I can't imagine it really matters.

In other words, the picture doesn't show the actual plug on either site.
