Where is this headlight relay located? I am having the same issue & got a new relay from VW going by the part number provided, but I can't find where it is.

Right above your knees, usually attached with a zip tie to the steering column or thereabouts.

That's where I thought it would be, but I only saw a flasher relay there (3 pin) Did not see the headlight relay anywhere. Unless it's hidden behind the kick panel

Here's a pic of mine. Note the headlight relay at the top of the pic. It is zip tied to the steering column. The flasher unit is part of the trailer relay fusing set up. It all runs in to the same circuitry, so it's got to be around there somewhere. Try tracing the wires as you see them below. It's probably just hiding behind something.

Wait a minute -- you don't have the old Triumph column in there, do you?

Yep, the Triumph column does not use a headlight relay. It's all in the switch itself. I would shoot Bob P. an email and ask him if there's a cheap and easy upgrade on that switch (assuming it's broken).
