Plug wire question

Removed my BHR coils and am returning to OEM. (long story, different post) But dealer says "dead rotor = new motor!" Before I resign myself to that likelihood, I am throwing new coils and plugs at it. It currently runs, in limp mode only, just the way it did when my OEM coils failed. I ran on the BHR setup for 40K more miles after the first limp mode incident. So, I just pulled those out and put in a new set of OEM. I thought I kept my old wires but, no. And it does not appear the BHR is compatible. Will the BHR wires work with the OEM coils?
thanks

Not sure if anyone has answered your question but to the best of my knowledge I believe the BHR wires are made shorter than OEM wires. Therefore, I don't believe they are compatible. Don't quote me on this but I think I'm right. Maybe someone else can give you a definitive answer.

No. The BHR (D585) coils have a different coil wire end and will not plug into OEM coils.
