I'm replacing a few of my ignition coils, and it's been a while so I can't recall. For this case, isn't denso and Hitachi equivalent?

 

The Denso coil is a reboxed Hitachi coil with a Denso part number sticker.

 

Danke, that's what I thought I remembered.

 

Reboxing and price increasing is more prevalent in this industry than you have any idea. A perfect example is what happens with the clutch as most of the clutch kits for this car are just LUK's repackaged for more money.
