Default Motorcraft spark plug wires?

It would appear that O'Reilly's gave me the wrong set..

I have the WR-4017-C set, which as far as I can tell, is for '84-'93 5.0's.. I'm thinking I need the WR-4096 set.

Am I correct in assuming that the set I have won't work for my '94 5.0? Looks like I'll be making a trip back to the store..meh.

Nothing's "wrong" with them, I'm just seeing online that the WR-4017-C set is supposedly for '84-'93 5.0s, while the WR-4096 set is supposedly for '94-'95 5.0s.. I have a '94..

The coil wire may be different.... Where is the coil located on a 94-95?

On the front of the engine to the right of the distributor. Other than that I think the rest of the wires should work ok, but don't quote me on that.
