Angry Help Ignitions Coils

My b6 just blew five Ignition coils damn im pissed...I just purchased the vehicle like a month ago used. Dealer does not want to cover even though I purchased the ext warranty. Any ways enough of my ranting, but does anyone know where I can purchase the wire cover thats covers the electrical wires that lead to the plugs that connect to the ignition coils I kinda cracked it and it is not holding together.

Most aftermarket brands happen to use O.E. coils in their box. I know the NAPA ones do and so does Standard Motor Products. NAPA also has a new import line that uses all the O.E. manufactures to source the part. Companies like Beru, Meyle, Bosch, etc.

If you go to a NAPA store, ask for Altrom parts (that is the brand that groups all these O.E. manufactures together)

Also when it comes to VW/Audi parts a lot of the product offering comes in genuine VW/Audi boxes.

Same thing goes for their brakes and suspension pars, Pagid, Textar, Brembo, Zimmerman, Febi Bilstein, Koni, Scantech, Lemforder, etc.

thanks yall, I decided to change all of my coils. And it was a relatively easy job, expcept I cracked the red wire cover and would not hold. Where can I get another wire cover. Im scared that water might get into the electrical wires
