Well like an idiot i just brought the car home from a decently long drive and decieded I would start taken everything apart to change the spark plugs in the Morning

Well while unplugging the plug on the coil pack the plastic was very brittle and just shattered in my hand anyone know where i could get a replacement? of do i need a new coilpack harness?

EDIT: jus to make things a lil more clear im talken about the plug on the harness not the plug on the coilpack

Theres a q45 or two at my local junkyard if you need some connectors. I already pulled the 1&2 coil packs for spares so i can get the harnes no problem.

well the q45's plug is a little different. It had like an extra wire on top of it that i had no idea what it was. removed it and it becomes just like the rb plug

Yes, but only the first 2. That's why rustspec only took the first two.
