What year is your car? Universal doesn't mean shit with these. 94-95 V6s used distributors. 99-00 coil packs are different than 01-04 coil packs, and I'm not sure if 96-98 coil packs are the same as 99-00s. Those links you posted look like they're designed for use with distributors (I know the one that mentions 5.0L Mustang is for distributors).

yea mines is a 2000 v6...

Yeah those wires won't work with your coil pack. Our wires actually clip into place.

ok im just going to set you straight on this now lol...you will not notice a difference between 7mm and 9mm wires using a oe coil pack...and since screaming demon coil packs suck you're kinda stuck with oe...now if you want to spend money on a 9mm wire to look cool to your friends thats ok...

but i always find its pointless to spend extra money when oe parts work just as well if not better

and if you want to say i'm wrong feel free to take that up with Cricket lol...i just don't want this to turn into another CAI vs Windstar debate...

You mind setting me straight on this one 6er... i thought the screaming demon was a good coil? I dont mean on stock apps but boosted/nitrous cars.

They're known to go bad pretty quickly and you need special wires to make any real use of them.

and this...(livewire is the wire name if you didn't know qwik)

basically sometimes OE is just the best way to go for some things

^ Yeah I know about the livewires but i cant see spending that much on a set of wires, its a little redonkulous just to be able to run a slightly bigger gap.. think i'll just keep my stock coil and wires.
