FI cars have the coil mounted to the left of the generator, pointing 
forward.  There is a special bracket that clamps to the fan housing with a 
longer bolt.  The strap that wraps around the coil is "part of the coil" and 
is not the piece that I am talking about.  I have OE refinished brackets if 
that's what broke.  If fastened correctly, the bracket will never break.
