Default those with 8.5mm spark plug wires

i got some fat *** wires... VITEK. they dont fit into the stock spark plug fittings... what did you use to hold em in place? i dont wanna ghetto rig it to fit.. so im lookin to see if anyone has any tricks. some dude told me pepboys has some fatter spark plug brackets but they look ugly.

they just flop around somewhere on top of the valve cover. Eventually you'll get pissed off and run oem... then you'll realize there's no need
