If you've replaced the rotor you already have the cap off, now it's just a process of replacing a wire at a time fromthe old cap to the new cap if I'm reading what you're saying correctly?

wow.... your seriously having a hard time installing an MSD cap???

install the CAP ONLY... then put all your wires on... then place the logo cover on top, and put the two screws down into the cap.... its really not that hard
