Std bosch relays with/without 87a are fairly easy to find. My preferance are actually the ones Western Plow uses as they are hermetically sealed- but they are only 4pin.

What I am looking for is the relays with 2 87 outputs and also the socket-harnesses for 5 pin relays. I know oldsmobile used the dual 87s back in the 80s for their fog lamps

As a follow up question, where do you guys get Relay's? And do you get relays with the little wiring harness already on it (has a wire coming off each of the terminals? Also what type of relay will I need for a simple "starter kill relay". Is this just a SPDT relay? I am not a dealer, so is there some place besides bulldog security I can buy relay's 1 or two at a time? Sorry to steal your thread :(

where would you find DPDT relays? for 12 v/30 amp or so?

Is there some part of a vehicle that would use these stock? I can't find a local supplier for that matter. I saw radio shack had dpdt 12v 3 amp. but only in the US not in canada where i am located.

easier then ordering them is just to go to circuit city. inless you want a large bulk of them, in which case you should order.

I've been pretty pleased with Waytek Wire for a lot of material, from wire to connectors to relays.

does anyone have a good place to get bulk relays with the harnesses. Other bulk supplies would be great to but I'm most interested in relays.

Thanks
