Spark plugs

I just got some Bosch platinum plugs for my ZX3 (2001) w/ 2 liter Ztech.
I was about to put these things in and I noticed the reach of the plug is
about 3/8" longer than the original plugs. (Longer being from were the plug
tapers to fit in the top of the hole to the end of the threads.)
I went to Bosch’s web site and they do not list a plug for this car.

Anybody know if there is that much room in the combustion chamber for the
extra length?

Help! Focus Mp3 Player

Hello!

   I want to swap out my stock CD PLAYER for the Stock Blaupunkt MP3
player.  However, I have heard that the wiring is different for these
players.  Does anyone know where I can get an adapter to make this
work?  OR how I can go about installing this new MP3 Player?

My car is a 2003 Ford Focus LX Premium and the MP3 Player is coming
out of a 2003 Focus ZX3.

    Please reply via email if possible!

    Cheers!
