My FLAPS only offered one option, a very basic looking set of Bosch
wires ($50CDN).  Not sure about the warranty, I'll have to check the
box, but at that price I'm not expecting a lot.

Now I have to figure out the best way to replace a couple of hoses that
connect to the "T-piece".  They are peeing away the blue stuff, and it's
too expensive to waste.  Wonder if I can do this on the curbside...
