Default Mantecore wires, quick

Ok, so i'm changing my spark-plugs during lunch today and i pull on one of my kore wires and it rips the head off. GREEEEAT. So now i'm stuck with the plastic stiff part in my engine (yeah i'm a sick *******). Anyway, long story short, i'm back to stock wires (eww) and i need better wires before my dyno/tunning session this saturday. Anyone know of a place that'll ship some high-quality wires asap?

Can't you get a set of Accel's or one of those cheaper brands from Autozone/Pepboys or something? Sorry, I'm not sure what the name was.

If you have enough room on the wire, its easy to fix. If you have ever crimped a end onto some coaxil cable, its the same principle. You need the old end,take it apart. You'll see a conector with the broken peice, take that off.

Strip the bare end of the plug wire, and crimp it back onto the connector. Its easy, play around with it.

MAGNACORE Not MANTACORE

What brand were the wires that broke? Magnacore's come with a lifetime guarantee if I'm not mistaken.

And yes, they come with a limited lifetime warranty. Magnecore manufactures different types of wires, and the KV85 wires are your best choice for a mildly modified Hyundai if you do choose to purchase their wires. The place I ordered from was very prompt. I had my wires within 3 days of ordering. Email me if you would like their information.
