I've spotted this before. These guys have got their facts wrong. Bongos with VIN 300307+ take shorter (65mm) plugs.

Whatever!

I was only pointing out they are available at that length.

I'm not having a dig, Yamaha! :D But I have heard that the modified plugs needed on 95/96 models are variously 102, 103 or 105 mm. I know it's only fractions, but if we are going to get some spacers in stock, I need to know the exact measurement.

Now, who has got a micrometer?

Greetings all,
I bought EBAY Item number: 250046552756 for my 95 Bongo VIN 104419 and have just fitted them and they are great. So I reckon that settles any doubts about them. Also just put one of them 95 a/h Asia batterys on.
