Ive no idea, but generally if a single coil has 4 pins, it's a fairly safe bet it has internal ignitor.

3 pins can be either.

2 pins very unlikely it has internal ignitor.

Ive no idea what COP will actually fit into a Zetec cylinder head. That would be your first concern.

But some people use a motorbike coil, or a Yaris/YRV Daihatsu COP pencil style coil I think for other engines. Bike ones might be the CBR, not sure.

I got your pm mate. Reason I asked about fireblade ones is I can get them for nothing and I have a loom with denso plugs already fitted. Those vw ones look bit big for my liking. Thanks anyway.

S60 does have 4 drivers.

Although you could still wire them in a wasted spark style if you wanted using only 2 drivers ( assuming built in ignitors )
