Don't you love that kind of job? I still have a few wires to finish up
myself.
My coil packs are entirely exposed, and away from high heat sources, but
it did require the removal of the wind****eld washer reservoir to bolt
them to the firewall.
Luckily, I have the alternate reservoir system for Miatas with ABS,
(located next to the left front wheel under the nose), but I have never
gotten around to installing it.
