Just trust me. They're great plugs. Definitely worth the extra money.

My 2000 came with NGK double platinum but the replacement will be with NGK Iridium. Is that OK?

Can someone tell me which plugs are the right ones for a 2002 GLE?

On courtesyparts.com they have 3 different ones for 02-03.

Agreed. Iridiums should last the useful life of the engine if you put them in at 100,000 miles.
