Default Ignition Coils - How do I determine if I need 2 or 4 pin terminals ? 1999 Jaguar XJ8

I want to buy a full set of 8 ignition coils for my 1999 Jaguar VDP. How do I determine if I need 2 or 4 pin terminals?

I want to buy the ignition coils linked below and bring them to my mechanic. $30 a piece seems like a great deal. Any thoughts on that?

thanks,

I am reading that the AJ27 engine 1999-2003 calls for a 4 pin terminal. Can some one please confirm that?

Yes 4 pin. There have been many threads about failure of bargain coils so they may not be that good a deal.
