I've got a set of brand new Bosch Super 4 spark plugs from when I had the XSi and was wondering if the spark plugs are the same as the ones that are in the 180s..?
I've noticed the part numbers are the same as the XSI and GTi engines. Which is why I'm wondering if they'll work on the 180.
Ideally a part number from a 180 set so I can match them up with the XSi set would be great.
If anyone has this, please let me know 
Thanks

Bosch doesn't list a Super 4 spark plug for the GTI 180 engine.

In that case, what are the recommended spark plugs to use in the GTI 180..? I've noticed they do an Iridium spark plug, but would like some input on this.

Bosch FQR7ME is the only plug Bosch recommend.
Bosch part number is 0 242 235 791
0.90mm for the gap.

Thanks mate... I'm pretty sure the XSi is 522 as well. If it is, I've just saved my self 20 odd quid which I can use on other bits for the service.

Just found the set I had from my XSi and match the part numbers off the picture and the spark plugs themselves and they match. Nice little saving. Happy days when I picked them up from Halfords for £5 due to clearance (old packaging).
