Who makes the platinum plugs for Volvo? S70 1998

Wondering who makes the original equipment Volvo plugs which are platinum. Sure look Bosch-like to me.

Bosch colors :)

The owners manual page (136) has different plugs for Na and turbo.
Bosch FR7DC or Champion RC9YC for NA engines with a gap of .028"
Champion RC8PYP for turbos with a gap of .030"

Notice that Bosch is left out for turbos, and the last P must stand for platinum.

Thanks. Ordered a couple of sets from Volvo today. The old ones are made in Germany so I assume they are Bosch. Anyway, price is not too bad and they are platinum so they are a step up.
