The all black ones were the ones that shocked me and were giving off all kinds of blue spark in the back alleys. The gray wired ones are labeled bosch, and seem to be ok. As far as I know, I've never gotten a spark plug wire from anyone besides the bus depot...

Those look like the ones that shocked me. Ron said he doesn't sell them anymore.
