curious what some of you might be using for a newer square type 12v relay mount. i have two under the dash that are just kind of dangling there. I could zip tie them to something i suppose but was wondering if there are mounts for them somewhere.

thx.

For dash area relays, I repurposed the relay slot for the ignition/door buzzer after I removed it. I think there may have been another slot available as well. You will want to get the OEM-style female connectors with the locking tab, so they will stay captive in the plastic relay block, allowing you to plug and unplug the relay like the OEM units.

If you don't need it under the dash, you could fashion a mount under the drivers-side back seat, where the FI and defogger relays are. At least it would be with others of its kind.

the relays i have don't have brackets. i thought somewhere i saw something where the back of the relay would wedge into something of similar size on the body.

i'm considering using some industrial velcro maybe...
