Different ignition coils on Si?? Summit Stinks!

Ordered accel 140311-4 as per my fitment guide on summit racing (2003 civic si hatch 2.0)

And they turned out to be too big and with 3 prongs instead of my 2 prong connectors.

Have had them for over 6 mos. before installing...they won't take them back...understood.

But looking deeper into this, MANY online car places are selling the 3 prong for my vehicle....

do I have a rare bird or??? the OEM is
30520-RRA-007

but good golly they are proud of them...anyone know an aftermarket K-series? coil with 2 prongs?

Did you get that oem number from a vin checked lookup?

Possible previous owner replaced engine at some point?

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Not rare at all.

It's probably just poor cataloging by various seller(s).

The Honda part number you listed was used on a metric crapton of K engines throughout the years.
There were only a few early Civic (USA-SI and Can SI-R) that used the K engine, but there are a zillion regular Civics that didn't.
