Rennline Ignition Coil hardware question

[stateofidleness]

Probably a dumb question, but I’m mid-install of the Rennline ignition coils and I got the matching hardware kit that goes with them. The 2 longer bolts per coil make sense, but I’m confused on the 4 bolts and “spacers” that come with it. The kit says these are for the “exhaust heat shields”, but I’m not visually seeing where these would go or if they are even used on my car. I do have aftermarket bypass pipes and muffler so maybe that matters?

[997_986]

I’m not familiar with the product, but the coil heads are probably thicker (therefore longer screws) and the distance to the heat shields will need to be adjusted using narrower spacers.
What advantages do these coils offer compared to the BERU ZS 187?

I’ll take a guess that those would be used on the 996 or 997. No such heat shields on the 986 that I am aware of.
