Their is not way this is a direct replacement for the Opti Spark. What else would you need for this thing to replace the Opti spark and what would you need to remove from the Opti Spark to make this thing work?

thats just the cap and rotor button, that is a replacement for your oe stock rotor and button, thats actually a real good price, at my work a cap and rotor button cost about 160 made by gp sworsen. So that is a real good deal, i think i might try and get one.

thats not the part that goes bad- its the actual optical part thats the problem.

I ran the stock one for a long time- went thru 3 optical parts and never had a problem with the cap and rotor...
