Hmmmm, not sure. The set I have in mine at the moment are

NGK Iridium IX BKR6EIX-11 (4272)

and my old ones were
Denso K16TR11

Do a quick search and see if they're the right ones.

I dont think they will fit, as the hex head may be too large to fit down the plug tubes (and then fit a plug socket over)

Here's what that part number means:

B= 14mm thread dia, 20.8mm hex head (correct is BK = 14mm thread dia, 16.0mm hex head)
P= Projected centre electrode insulator
5= Heat range (best is 6 for a internally stock non boosted motor)
E= 19.0mm thread reach (correct)
S= Standard copper core electrode
11= Preset Gap (correct)

Give it a go, but make sure you have a telescopic magnet to get them back out if they arent going to fit.

For your reference... NGK part number decrypting matrix is here:

Get irridiums - those coppers won't last long and its a pain to have to replace them all the time just to save $50 or $100, plus you'll get a better spark.

If you want Iridiums (which I'd also recommend), then Alex had the right part number:

BKR6EIX-11

NGK recommend a heat range 6 for a normal 1UZFE
