FWIW -- I have often switched wires from one cap to another w/o problem 
-- just get the spiky screw to hit the same spot.  Sounds like the 
embossed cap with black wires is unambigiously original... anything else 
becomes a matter of opinion as to correctness.  Personally, I consider 
radio static to be 'original' too.  At the end of the day (as has been 
often pointed out before) it is your car and if bumble bee wires are to 
your liking then have at it.
