Monark Glow Plugs
Getting ready to order a set of glow plugs and saw that Monark has a brand of them.
Anyone given these a try? Thanks.

Monark and Champions are junk, I've seen the tips break off, I wouldn't waste my money on either of those.

I had Monarks in My Car here in S CA and one went bad in about 1.5 Years and the Glow Plugs were not stressed by Winter Temps and I reamed out the Carbon before they were installed.
No tips broke off. I replaced them with Bosch Plugs.

unlike other monark prodcuts ive definitely read no "glowing" reviews for their glow plugs.

Beru all the way! Made in Germany! Here is where to order: Glow Plugs for Mercedes - US Distributor of genuine BERU products - Kingsborne Wires Werks
Very fast order filling (ordered at night and were shipped mid-morning!), came fast, and according to Tram, less than Bosch. I have yet to install them, but from what I have found they are better than Bosch. I will do an update when I get a reamer.
