Which version should you choose?
The main difference between these cables is the covering on the cable. The “plus” version uses a nylon covering which is more durable than a typical plastic-coated cable. Personally. I’ve found the nylon cables to last longer in my car and to be less prone to cracking due to the temperature fluctuations.
The increased durability of the “plus” version is well worth the few extra bucks over the “non-plus” version.
