Spark Plug Socket!

OK, so I'm going to replace the plugs in my 916.
I've ordered a couple of NGK DC9PRE's

I don't actually have a spark plug spanner, but no problem I'll order one.
However reading on some forums, people have said the NGK plugs have a shorter shank than the Champions and a standard plug spanner might not be able to tighten the plug down properly - seems people have had to grind the outside of their spanner down a bit to get right down to where the engine steps in a bit!
is this right? and if so, being as I've got to buy a spanner anyhow, are there any spanner / sockets that will just work "as is" - save me having to modify a standard spark plug spanner...

@Iant187 Did you find a thin wall spanner that worked without machining?
