I have an Eclipse 2000 GT (V6) build in December 99 and it needs a new distributor.

I found a couple in ebay, but there's a little thing Im concerned about.

Some said:
Thru 4/2/00 or From 4/3/00

I understand this mean the building date, so my car would be Thru 4/2/00.

The distributor my car have says in the label TOT57871 and the cap have the wires plugs horizontally (on the sides)




WAI World Power Systems DST49602 New Distributor | eBay

The one I found in ebay says on the label TOT57671 and the cap have the wires plugs vertically (On the front).




eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices


But both items in ebay said it will fit my car and for the pictures the distributor look the same (except for the cap, of course).
The biggest difference is the price (130 dlls)

My questions are:

If I purchase the distributor with vertical plugs, will it work in my car if I exchange caps?

Is that the difference between Thru 4/2/00 or From 4/3/00? the caps?

Thanks in advance
