Many years ago I drove a Porsche 914.  If you went into Imported Car Parts
(the Bap-Geon distributor) you could by trigger contacts for the 914 or the
Super Beetle.  The first one cost $74.00.  The second one cost $18.00.
Now, you want to hear the real kicker.  They both have the exact same
Bosch part number and are infact the same part.  The only difference was the
catalog you look them up in.
