There used to be a complete kit to convert to pencil style plugs, but I guess it isn't available anymore.

Have you seen this?

Mercedes Diesel Glow Plug Repair

Also this note from Kerry, in another thread:
Quote:
It's not a big deal. Buy 5 of the retrofit glow plugs. Remove the loop plugs and their heavy wires. Leave the ground wire at the front of the engine disconnected. Hook the wire that come from the firewall to the first plug near the firewall to the new pencil plug nearest the firewall, then make jumper wires to connect the rest of the new pencil plugs together. You're done.
