You bought the car for your own reasons.. if you can't do the work then let the dealer do it. If you don't want to do the work, let the dealer do it. If your handy with tools try the couple of sites that are available. By the way, the word 'sez' is not a word.
I just ran into the whole thing with my mother-in-law and her car. I had diagnosed the same fix she paid $318 for on a $150 part. She was not wrong to get it dealer installed. I had it right. But she needed the second opinion; Go figure :)
Point is: know YOUR limitations! If it is truly over your head or you just don't have time, take it in to a shop.
Your the kind of guy that they write Haynes manuals for. Check out Ebay, it's full of them for cheap. The Haynes manual is good for simple maintainence procedures that a more eperienced DIYer could figure out just by looking at it. Beyond that it is, of course, useless for any real troubleshooting.

it can be done yourself, what model do you have?
also, in the GT beware the massairflow sensor, it breaks easily
hey tom, bring your butt over to
sez is a word, it means seize....

Consider the OEM style dual plat plugs from Champion for this application if you have a conventional motor. I did that and new ignition wires about
20,000 miles ago and expect to go at least 60,000 miles on that set.Richard.
