It takes all of 10 minutes to check one plug then you will be certain.

I bought my car in March of 08 and it was built in Sept 07.

Yes, the build date is on the drivers side frame panel. Just be sure you have a
9/16" thin-walled deep socket handy for the plugs. If they are the two piece, they are that odd size.

Good luck!

This is great news. My 08 was one of the last ones built prior to switching to 09 models. It was built at the end of May 2008 (I ordered it in early April). I too will probably pull one out to be sure, but it must have the updated head and plug - right?
