From what I have been told no but now I have a few sets that I hope to use to get one good set built. Looking at BNR's website he can basically pull the inners out and replace.

It was the coil harness due to the shielding wire was crimped in with the power wire. Ended up melting and shorted out all of them. After dissecting the harness and looking at each wire it was plain as day.
I would not recommend any moving or swapping to a T2 coil to anyone. Its not worth the chance of a fire and really after talking with several fd builders they say fd coils dont really go out.
