Everyone...

Just in case anyone wants these coils (as Paul mentioned, they
are the same part number that Mazda sells for about $50) and
can't get them where they live (Advance Auto requires them to be
picked up at their stores...they won't ship them, even though
their webpage says the order is available for free shipping when
you choose those items, the shopping cart says that these items
need to be delivered to a local store for pickup...that's the
policy here in the Rochester area, but it may be different where
you are ) I would be willing to see if I can get some here for
you and can ship them to you, as I did to Paul.

BTW, if you DO have an Advance Auto Parts in your area, and if
the website does report that they don't have any of these coils
available at the store for pickup, call the store, and talk to
the manager ...he can order them for you directly from the
manufacturer's warehouse instead of Advance Auto Parts warehouse
(I originally talked to one of the clerks, but he was not aware
that they could do this).

So again, Advance Auto Parts website is www.advanceautoparts.com
and the price of each coil is $24.79 if it hasn't changed.  The
delivery to the store has been free, and was within 24 hours
(Zach, the manager at my local store, said that they are only
costing him $21, so he's making about $4 on each one), so I could
probably get them out to you in just a couple of days after I
receive your payment.  Just let me know where you want them
shipped to, and I'll add shipping for Fedex Ground (lower cost
than Parcel post in most cases).  And, unlike Paul, I'll take
Paypal! And I certainly wouldn't refuse a tip!

I can't guarantee that I can still get them, but I'll try, if you
ask nicely. And as long as Advance is willing to keep getting
them for me! But, please...try the website and/or your local
Advance Auto Parts first. They just might change their policy if
they see a number of orders for these.

If I hear of any change, I'll let you all know.

They are IDENTICAL to Mazda coils.

Not wanting to spend any more money on necessary stuff.

What information do I need to type in to find them? They want a
model year, Make
(Mazda) veh model (RX-8) engine (?) I put in 2010 and vin p and
got nothing in
the ignition parts category. Do you have an exact part number?

-------------------------------------------------------
I think Advanced calls them the Intermotor/BWD E 1001
Mazda part number is N3H1 18 100B
The "B" is the important part number.
Early models did not have the "B"

AIC is the maker I think. Made in Japan.

Any RX8 after 2007.

Bummer, I get this part is unavailable.
C. Smith

From the web site perhaps?

Paul Lamar

A little more clarification and repetition may be needed here...

Yes...the website does say they are not available...that is why I
called one of my local stores to see how long it would take to
get them.

Zach, at the Irondequoit store, said that he didn't even have a
place on his shelves for them, and that his computer reported
that their warehouse didn't have them.  BUT he called me back an
hour later saying he could order them directly from the factory
and would charge me only what the website price was. So I ordered
the four I needed.

Zach did state that he was getting them for $21 each and was
making about $4 on each one.

I told Paul about it, and he asked me to get 8 for him.  So, I
called Zach and asked him to get me 8 more.

Now, for shipping cost... The total cost to Paul for the 8 coils
was $214...included my local 8% sales tax and $5.16 fedex
shipping (from here in New York out to California). That's $26.75
EACH...INCLUDING SHIPPING AND TAX.

As I said earlier, the secret is to call your local store, ask
for the manager (the clerk I first talked to didn't know what I
was talking about), and ask him to order them from the factory.
Advance will not ship them to anyplace except the local store who
ordered them, so you will have to go pick them up...at least that
was the case here...may be different where you live.

If you can't get them, LET ME KNOW and I will see if I can still
get them here.

If you only order four, the total will be right around
$110...delivered! Less than $28 each. Unless Advance gets wise
and ups the price! And if you order from me, I DO take Payapal!

If interested, you can reach me through my website,
www.agelesswings.com.  I am making nothing on this, and it does
cost me time and money to drive to the store to get them, so I
wouldn't refuse a little tip for my hard work! Although, it is
not necessary. <G

Thanks again Harley. You do good work.
