ignition wires

I've been accumulating parts for my big spring wrenching, and now that the brakes, clutch, engine/trans/rear seals, guibo, etc are on hand, I've moved onto ignition/tune up parts. I've got the filters, O2 sensor, plugs, cap, and rotor, but damn are the wires pricey. Best deal I've found yet is $380 USD, or almost exactly what I was able to aquire a new clutch kit for. Considering that they're not bad, just old, this is more than I want to spend. I've been picking through different cars in RealOEM trying to find a cross for the part # with no luck so far. Does anyone know if the wires were used on any other vehicles that may help expand my search for a good price on a set? thanks for any help.

i've got 5 new wires, plus the coil wire, if you're interested. I needed #6, was desperate and bought a full set last summer. $200 for the 5 + coil wire?
