Either get your existing socket & grind it down on a bench grinder, or see if you can either borrow or buy the genuine Mitsi spark plug too.
Alternatively, I have found tube spanners that have fit.

yeah most 3/8 drive sets that have plug sockets seem to fit ok or as Ben said just use a tube socket

If its a GPX the rears you need to modify the tool a bit.

Hi, I going to be changing my sparkies in a couple of days and I was reading through some older posts looking for some tips. Can anyone tell me in what do I have to modify on my plug socket on my gpx to change the rear plugs? Also any other tips would be great.
Thanks

If you want to buy the actual Socket tool you may have to wait for postage but..
