EliteSparkPlug Coil Wire Looks Strange and Doesn't Fit!!! (pics)

I finally got my 9mm wires and was installing them today, and the Coil wire doesn't fit or click at all to the coil, the opti end is normal and fits fine. Looking inside it doesnt match the stock one what so ever.. is this faultly or missing something?? I had to put the stocker back on.

Looks like you got a coil wire for a pre-96. Did you tell them the year of your car when you ordered the wires?

This is what I ordered and recieved
They took one day short of a month to arrive at my house after the package was lost in the mail, with a company that's impossible to contact with....and now the wrong damn wire.

I had the same problem. Ended up buying a new set of wires from NAPA at 100+$ just for the coil wire. It was aggravating. Try calling them, when I had arching wires I emailed them then he called me back the next day and overnighted me a new set.

I dont mean to hijack this thread, but do all of Elites OVC wire sets come with a coil wire? I never got one with mine, thought it was odd but didnt think anymore of it at the time.
