The plug heat shields are reusable. You just pull them off the boot and slide them back on the new wires. I'm not sure why you'd have to replace them unless they're smashed or lost/missing. If you're wondering how to remove them they won't come off without pulling the boot too. They go on before not after the wires are clipped to the plugs..
Suggestion: If you are particularly irritated by another member's posting habits and are constantly fighting the urge to flame them, you can click on that person's profile, and select "Add to ignore list." This will make that person's posts invisible to you.
