Replaced my green wire couple of years ago (1978 SC). You have to remove the distributor but no big deal. Easiest if you set it to TDC before you remove it and mark position of bracket where nut secures it so that you can install in same position. I bought the URO product but it failed and ended up buying from my local Porsche dealer. URO did refund me and I think they have improved their product. If you lose the timing, again no big deal; I had my distributor out a number of times and eventually forgot to set it to TDC. You then need to know when #1 is firing (on compression) and I did this by removing a inlet valve cover and check for play on the rocker. Actually, removed right hand side as it was less work and checked that #4 was tight at TDC which means that #1 must be loose. Hope this makes sense.
