Hi, I am looking for a Spark Plug Socket for the mk5 golf gti. Where should I get one. I am going to be servicing my car in May/June time when 10k miles since last service will have happened and would like to get the tools in advance. Thanks. Any links would be helpful!

I think its 19mm deep socket you need. Most tool kits come with a spark plug tool.
I havent done mine yet but I doubt you'll have any trouble if you have a half decent tool kit

Halfords were doing a good deal of a socket set a while back.
You really need a good variety of sockets and adapters to do the work on your GTI. The space restrictions means you'll used angle adapters more often than you think.
Invest early on, it's worth it.

16mm magnetic end spark plug tool... halfords do them i think.

That should do but get a long magnetic one. Easier to use
