2000 Ford Explorer XLT spark plug wire issues

To anyone who can give me advice on succussfully changing my spark plug wires on my 2000 Ford Explorer, I would really appreciate your advice.

So I recently purchased two sets of wires (right and left) because the folks at the parts store advised me too. I just opened the both boxes and realized I purchased a total of 12 wires when I obviously only need 6. Why is there a set for the right side as well the left??? Do I actually need both sets to complete this task? Could anyone please advise?

Thanks!

6 plugs = 6 wires.

Take the set back to the idiots, make sure you have one good set.
