yo sup guys.

Need help, just bought some msd wires model 32999, but the wires dont seem to plug into the distributor cap, it has some plastic clip looking thing that really clips to nothing. AS long as its from 99-03, those plugs would normally fit correct? do you guys think i bought wrong plugs? on the box it says its for 2000 mustang 3.8l. but **** wont go in. need help guys please!

You don't have a distributor cap, but a DIS (distributorless ignition).

If it doesn't exactly match the plug wires you pulled off, they gave you the wrong ones.

Return them and get another set...
