Spark Plugs

I know i'm posting a million threads lately, but I have a lot of questions!
I want to do the spark plugs, what are the best plugs for the car? any input?
also, I don't see ignition wires, are there any?

your base model, use stock plugs. They are coil on plug system, so no wires

That's what I thought, thanks! - I purchased Autolite XP-Iridium's, Is that ok?
Also, do i just remove each of the black things on top of the block to access each plug?

yep.

It's coil over ignition. Just remove the packs. Remove spark plugs, replace with fresh and away you go. I've changed my plugs in my old car at least 15 times

Did you notice a difference using the XP Iridium's???

I looked for them at Canadian Tire but the parts counter told me they don't make them for the 2.2 LAP??? Where did you get them?

Stay with stock heat range. Other than that, Iridiums or Platinums should work just fine.

I purchased them at AutoZone here in the U.S - they work just fine so far, the car runs/accelerates real smooth, then again the old ones were pretty fried when i took them out.
