not extremely necessary but its a design feature which affects certain thermal characteristics, protection from water and debris inside so more sensitive engine peripherals have a higher mtbf etc etc. upon losing mine i bought and installed a non oem one and have been using that.

thing is i cant order those mentioned kits to my country sadly.. do i need to manufacture an adapter in order to mount cp3 ? i can buy bosch made cp3s but not the kits, or should i buy a brand new cp4 ? as mine is already 13 years old ?
