Astra 17 TD Glow plugs?

Does anybody know where to buy them cheaper than a Vauxhall dealer?
I am not mechanically minded so I have no idea how many would be needed. Vauxhall charge £71.00 to change them. How hard is it to replace them and do I need any special tools?

Answers:
You should b able to get them from any car spares shop! You will need four of em! As for r they easy to change, yeah in princible but if they r the originals or havn't been changed for a while i wouldnt bother attempting it as they can b a real pain to get out, and the last thing you wana do is snap one of in the head cause that will end up costing you more than 70 squid!!!!

good luck!
hmm

I changed mine on a Citroen. Three of them were easy but one was tucked in behind a fuel pipe so I couldn't get a socket onto it. I needed a ratchet spanner or something I think; but I had to make do with an open spanner and a lot of swearing. I'd have paid anyone £71 just to change that single one - it was horrible. If you're "not mechanically minded", are you sure you want to do this kind of surgery on your car?
any motor factor is cheaper than vauxhall's, straightforward to do if a little fiddly
buy them from a motor factors, much cheaper and easy to do on that model,
