The reason why you can't find wires, cap and rotor at Autozone is because your car doesn't have them.

Your engine has a coil pack, with coil on plug technology, with three coil wires, and three high tension leads, which piggy-backs to the next cylinder. So basically, you have three coil wires and three high tension leads.

However, these coil wires rarely go out. There is no scheduled replacement interval.
