Real Denso Coil Packs?
I received (4) Denso coil packs that I ordered directly from Rockauto today and wanted to ask if these look like real Denso products. The reason I ask is because if you look at the pictures, they do not look identical. I googled counterfeit Denso coil packs and there are ones in the market so the differences do raise some concern. They did come in Denso boxes but who knows.
On the bright side, the car runs way better with the new coil packs.

I have no doubt in my mind that rockauto would only sell genuine products....They’re probably the biggest online retailer there is; I’m sure they have direct dealings with the manufacturers. Ordered tons of parts from them. Probably my favorite source for maintenance and replacement parts

Did you have any symptoms caused by the previous coil packs? I assume you have a DBW S2K?

Curious as well if you had any problems with the old coil packs. I was actually considering replacing mine as well since it has 113K and the coils are original to the car.

What is the maintenance schedule for the coil packs?

I am not familiar with these coil packs but I can tell you I am suspicious just after viewing the photos. I have spent a fair amount of time over decades in China and Japan and I am acquainted with knockoffs (including sophisticated aviation knockoffs) on everything. I find it hard to believe a Japanese company would place their stickers in a half hazard fashion as shown. It very well could be legit but my fake radar has gone off.
I think the idea running pictures by the Denso folks is a good one. If they are fake, they may work for a while but they may also lead to problems down the line.
