hey TONY!

hey man.. I just got a set of 4... they go in this weekend... I'll let you know.

The OEM coils were around the same price (the BMA website price is per coil, as I found out).

For $15, you can feed one M42-related forum for a day (or thereabouts).

I am working on a coil on plug conversion to replace the stock coils with some VW coils and thus eliminate the high tension wires. I will let you know how it goes.
