Very expensive from dealer.

Mtek (a member here) sells Magnecor for less than dealer - very good leads...

Factors are cheaper

These aren't technically the right leads, they're a smidgeon longer, but they should be absolutely fine. They're Bosch leads for the Vectra V6. Cost £38 delivered from Ebay.

See this thread for some background:

And here they are:

I have some but haven't got round to fitting them yet.

Bosch Vectra V6 ones work fine on the Omega, I have a set on mine now. Yes they are a little longer but it's not a problem, plenty of space around the DIS to take up the slack.

Incidentally, I have a spare set of Omega leads for sale if anyone is interested. I bought them from a member on here as I wasn't sure if the Vectra ones would fit, so wanted a set of Omega leads as backup so I didn't have to do the job twice if the Vectra ones didn't fit. They did fit, so the Omega ones are surplus to requirements. They're a little dusty from lying around in the garage, but otherwise 100% and look identical to the Bosch ones with the exception of the length. Looking for £25 inc post. Pics below showing the Omega leads I'm selling and the Bosch Vectra ones (clean ones are the Vectra ones, they were straight out of the packet when these pics were taken).
