The NGKs say Eldor in the typical spot on the plug connector socket.

Interesting. I always assumed NGK manufactured their own coils.

I purchased All x8 of my NGK coil packs @ Rock Auto for $80.00 per!! Happy Camper here.

Is it worth picking 8 of these up just in case?

That depends on how many miles you have on the ones you currently are running. If you’re due to replace them, then yes it is worth picking up a set now while you can. They’ve been hit or miss for the last 1-2 years now. You could always buy the bmw ones at $200 each or something crazy like that.
