They were great. $340?????? You can buy that little plastic piece for $5.81 at the dealer... you do NOT need to replace the whole distributor unless something is REALLY wrong. If something went south inside it, you can buy a distributor rebuild kit, which includes all the internal electronics, for under $200 at the dealer. I was double check with these guys and make sure you really needed a new distributor and not something significantly less expensive, like a $6 plastic connector! -Justin
