Question What part is this?

Need to order a new part for my 87 4runner and I just want to be sure that I have the right part name. Looking to see if I can be given an exact description of what the part is. I believe it is a rotor and cap but not entirely sure. Image of the part is linked below. Thanks!

Your pic is of a distributor cap. Rotor is not visable, but lies inside cap.
Usually both replaced at same time.

If your doing the Cap and rotor you might want to think about spark Plugs as well!!

Ya I was told I should replace the rotor and cap. I plan on getting new spark plugs as well and I was recommended to purchase Denso spark plugs. Do you guys recommend a website for Toyota parts that I can use?

I get my cap, rotor, oil filter and plugs from the dealer ship. I get my Denso plug wires from ebay, for about $29 and that includes shipping. They fit well and wont back off like part stores will do.

Dealer is about same price as part stores top name brands for the above mentioned parts.
