Phillip,

The Cateras you were referring to aren't really USA Cadillacs - they are 
Opels with Cadillac badges - made in Germany. They probably use Bosch 
systems.

(Now that they are available used - they represent an unusual opportunity - 
we have not been able to get Opels for a long time - here is an Opel 
intended to compete with a BMW 3 series - and it is available at used USA 
car prices. An opportunity for fellow tightwads. But hurry - they were only 
imported for a few years - the current ones are USA source.)
