I'm pretty sure the Gold (which was in my truck from the factory) fits in the extended life category as well. But I am sure that green would be "regular stuff". Someone else confirm the gold part??

Yes the gold also fits into the extended life. I changed out the green with red, no more checkin SCAs!
