I have a '92 UK CS.
I am going to buy a dizzy cap and arm but there appear to be two types of cap.....one for 5mm leads and one for 8mm leads......early spec had 8mm leads according to the Fensport website....and of course 5mm for the late spec....
Which is mine.......or do I just take my VIN number into Mr. T and get them to check on their system?

Cheers

Steve

Steve - maybe the easiest way is to have a look at the leads you currently have and see if they measure 5mm or 8mm?

well if it has 5mm leads they are generally more expensive.

i had a corolla gti with 5mm leads and they were over 50 quid non genuine.

8mm is a standard size through out all manufactures hench cheeper

Well in that case then I'll get a quote from Mr. T....see if they are more or less than a set of 5mm Magnecor leads. I'll go for the cheaper.....not fussed which it is....
