Coil pack pin out

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone knew the pin-outs on the 1999 Boxster coil packs. The schematics indicate that pin 1 is trigger, pin 2 is +12V, and pin 3 is ground, but I can't actually tell on the coil pack itself what the pin assignments are! I've tried searching for datasheets or other technical data, but nothing (I even checked all the OE-replacement brands like Duralast, etc, to see if they had some data, but couldn't find anything).

Thanks in advance for your help!

S.

Can you pull back the boot on the connector and see the color of the wires?
Trigger: Green/(stripe per coil#)
+12V: Black
Gnd: Brown

Look at this image from the Pelican Parts tech article. You can see the wires and their correlation:
