For sure! And a tool to change em, cause not to many hands can fit through that vent!

EDIT: Also one question, not sure if its been discussed but would a higher amp relay work since they would not burn as quick or would the system not like more juice flowing through it?

correct me if i am wrong.

the middle relay is the fuel pump and the others are fan and lites?

i know fuel pump is a must have. heres the question.

if i dont use my lites do i still need it that relay?

if i can hot wire my fan to run on all the time. do i need a relay for that?

i dont know much on electrical. just asking

I believe if you are standing infront of your ds, the relay on the right is the fuel pump and the one on the left is the fan

The light relay also does the dash lights (Neutral light etc.) & the rear brake light, I believe. So it doesnt just do the head lights.
