Default Tune-up help

I am about to do a slight tune-up and change the wires, cap, and rotor on my 94 Honda Accord EX 2.2L 4-door. I have seen everyone say use OEM wires or NGK blues. I probably will use one of those, but how bad are the $30-$35 wires from O'Reilly's(Borg-Warner brand I think) or the same price range ones from Autozone or Pepboys? Also, if I do get the genuine Hondas or NGKs, would it be bad if I get the $12 cap and $12 rotor from one of the discount parts stores to go along with them or are most caps and rotors basically the same? Just as important, where is the cheapest/quickest shipping place online to order the factory or NGK wires from? Thanks.

Yep, Advance Auto is where I found the $12 cap and rotor. So what are the more loved sites for low priced parts other than Ebay?

take my advice and use Honda factory plug wires,,,, NGK spark plugs ZFR5F-11. factory cap + rotor ,, you might spend a few more bucks but well worth it

Yeah I probably will get the OEMs, but who online has the best prices and shipping? My local dealer will be $88 for the wires, $30 and $24 respectively for cap and rotor, plus tax for everything.

Ah forget tax.... call Eisinger Honda up here in Montana and have them ship it to you, gotta love no sales tax! *L* (BTW I don't work for that dealership but I have bought stuff from them before....)
