were my coils replaced?

I bought by 2000 SE with 87,000 miles on it....i now have 101,300 miles on it and never any probs with the coils like others said. Do you think the old owner replaced them already? is there any way to tell?

take the cover off and look for a GREY dot on them... if they have it then you have "what they call" upgrade.....

You see my engine cover..that's the AE, under that one there is the 3.0 red and grey one. Take that off and you will see three black small square boxes, those are your coils. On the top you should see the GREY dot......
