These come with a replacement nut to tighten down the wire connections to the solenoid. For some reason this is a half-width nut. I can't see any reason not to use a wider nut for this; I was replacing a previous Bosch unit that I didn't install and it had been done with the skinny nut. With the incoming wire, a bit of the solenoid housing, and the thin nut it probably took me an extra 15 minutes or so to get this loose. So I put a wider nut on the new one. This turned out good because I soon found a use for a thin nut....
