Hi everyone, just wondering if what my bently manual tells me is true (or if I'm reading it properly...) Is the rear defogger relay located under the back seat within close proximity to the voltage regulator? It has a black wire with an inline fuse going from the voltage regulator to this relay, if that helps! If so, are there any reproduction relays available through CIP?
Thanks!!

Yes it is there and it's just a standard horn replay. Just get a Bosch 30amp 4 or 5 pin relay and connect it correctly.

I have an extra relay (new) that I can send your way. When they sent it to me I told them they did not send me the 5 prong as shown on their website. Thus they sent me another...still 4 prong. Discovered that they are supposed to be 4 prong, etc

I know it says 5 prong but it is only 4.
