Click the link in my signature that says Cop sticky. That will tell you everything you need to know about our COPs.

You don't have a single ignition coil, you have 8, one for each cyclinder. Can you please describe your situation and why you think you need to replace them?

He actually needs a coil pack, the car doesn't seem to have one!

I'm just messing with ya.

The Coils are on the Plugs, known as Coil on Plugs or COPs for short, they are green and black, hidding underneath your fuel rails...

Hmmm....there is an ignition circuit D...I think a P0354 error code shows that, and if that is the case, it could be the COP, the wiring to the COP, the connector, or even the PCM itself.

OP, are you getting any DTC's? If you are, switch the COP from cylinder 4 with another cyclinder, say number 1, and clear the codes. Then see if you get the codes again and see if it moved to number one-following the coil. If so its a bad coil.

FYI Number 4 is passenger side rear, kinda a paint to get to.

+1, the official description for P0351 through P0306 is "Ignition coil A through J primary/secondary malfunction"...
