I get mine from the dealer, it is the only place I can find locally buyt I am sure that I am paying a premium for them as a result. A note about replacing the plugs. BE careful lifting the DI cassette, it can damage easy. Lift it straight up carefully. I have also read that you should not turn it over but keep it right side up. Something about oil?? in the unit. I cannot confirm if this is a fact but I wouldn't take any chances. Also use a torque wrench and torque to 20 ft lbs. See below for a extract form an older posting
In Reply to: How difficult is it to change the plug with DI posted by patrick on January 25, 2000 at 11:34:42:
"Really, it is. You unscrew the four torx screws at each corner of the DI cassette and lift *straight* up. These DI cassettes have been reported to be on the fragile side, so do your best NOT to wiggle it back and forth to
remove it. The plugs are right underneath. You'll need an extension and a deepwell socket to get 'em out. The gap on the plugs (for the 2.0L turbo plugs) is .039", and torque to put 'em back in is 20 ft lbs.
Seriously, it's really simple, especially since you don't have any spark plug wires to get mixed up."
