So I was thinking you unscrew the tip, take out the resistor through the opening, insert an equal piece of legnth of copper (maybe a cut coat hanger) for continuity, and screw the cap back on.
Denso's T20EP-U's are pretty easy to obtain. They cost $2/each last time I bought some. I bought 12 last time around so I'd have some for the next change. I wouldn't go through all that extra stuff.
