the coil pack that sits on top of the boot that fits down into the motor and fastens onto the spark plug top..... the pack tore from the rubber boot as i was trying to lift the boot out of the spark plug tube. Left the boot attached to the spark plug and the coil pack seperated. I was able to reconnect the pack to the boot but it's still torn.

Hope that makes sense. I could take it apart to try to take a picture if needed?

99.9% of the parts on toyota/lexus are Denso. I guarantee you that the oe wires you'd get from the dealer would really be Denso. Thats why its so much stinking cheaper to buy from SparkPlugs.com because they have all of the OE Toyota (Denso) parts that are available in the aftermarket. I never buy from the stealer if I can help it.

rcargile, the OE Denso wires are $85.35 there (looks like they're on special), or NGK's wires - which are OE identical, I feel they're the same quality as Denso, but NGK's come in a cool blue color, are $97.95.
