Car will be going in for a decent service in the next week or so. At the last one my mechanic told me my leads were rubbing and that I should change them at some point.

Went to toyota today & was told it would cost me $533. So my question to you guys is, are there any alternatives that work just as well and are a good fit, at a price that won't break the bank?

Any help is much appreciated!

Eagle leads from Repco, ask for LS400 leads, these will fit a Soarer.
Toyota leads come with all the plastic bits and pieces, and are a perfect fit, prolly why they are costly.

I fitted Eagle leads a couple of years ago, it was pretty straight forward as I recall.

Cost at the time was around $180.00
