I just fitted a pair of Gen 1.

They are widly available and have very little resale value.

Conversation at the local scrappies;

"Got any Ford coil packs?"

"Knock yourself out mate, they're FOC today"!

And the best for neat and tidy!, maybe 20-30 quid more but bolt straight on nice fit and do the job!
