Engine details might help you get the answer you seek. Or you could search it as it has ben covered before for both the V8 and the CRD that I can recall.

Electronics, go genuine. It's not worth the hassle of cheap chinese parts when you're dealing with WG electrics. Having said that, I just replaced mine again for the 2nd time in two years with the original one that was in it, because the genuine one I bought was tripping the check engine light On a v8, the easiest way to do it is remove the battery and battery tray, remove the camshaft sensor wiring plug and use a 10mm spanner to remove the retaining bolt and pull it out. Be cafeful of any shim/spacers that may be fitted between the camshaft sensor and cylinder head.

We dont know the engine yet. No neef for genuine as in from Jeep. For example the sensors on the CRD are Bosch so you can get them cheap O/S far less than dealer.

Not much point guessing without full details.
