Default snap in spark plugs and screw on spark plugs?

i bought some NGK iridium plugs for my hawkeye, rancher, and recon. i now noticed that they have screw on tips instead of the original snap on tips. what can i do with this? i know i can just somehow make up my own way to attach it, but just wanted to see if there are other cable attachments i could buy or something like that that would get it done right.

every NGK and champion plug i have looked at had removable tips. I would see if they can just be threaded onto the iridium plug first before i spent any money. I have never moved a tip to a different brand of plug though so not sure if the threads are the same. If that does not work, you can replace the spark plug boot. It will twist off of the wire and you thread the new one back on. That is a lot of work just to run a different spark plug though.
