@Sip Vids The ignition coil on my civic was 15A, and it was fine for two years. It was just powerful enough to handle the drive window, the passenger side window got stuck sometimes, I had to reach over and physically pull the window up while pressing the button. It's a good kit for $100. I had to scrap the car two months ago, too told and too many problems. I miss it so much still..
