Douglas:

As soon as I get my coils and cover back from Dave Kase, I can send them to
you, provided you pay shipping to and from (yes, I want the coils back,
LOL.)  I am assuming David has fixed up his car with the new 1.8Tconversion.

I hope you don't want the coils in a hurry - FedExing them across the
country cost $80.  (!!!!)

I hope you can wait a bit - these kinds of parts loans take time, LOL.
E-mail me off-list with your address.
