Replacement for Meyle dimmer relay

[Dangerous Doug]

I bought my kit about four years ago, and it came with the kit. When I got #2108 running back in November I found the problem. ERA replaced the relay twice, but both times with the Meyle. After taking one apart and identifying the mechanical issue, I decided to find a non-Meyle part.

No biggie. I have predictably operating headlights now. I'm happy. Well, after I swap out that tach...

PS: Tim, I am having a great time driving my FIA around. I'm over 3k miles since I got it running last November! It's already time for my first oil change.

Then it's time to check the small set-screw on the clutch throw-out arm. It can vibrate loose and the arm will fall off the spline resulting in the clutch pedal going all the way to the floor and stranding you. I wrote about this a year or two ago. A quick search will bring it up along with other ERA owners saying "Dang, my set screw was loose too, glad I read this thread!"

Doug,

Almost a year ... does not seem like that long ... sounds like 3000 fun miles too

When do you send the car off for paint? Or maybe just going to keep it bare for a while longer ???

Looking forward to getting my car ... last I heard they were working on the frame ... time to hurry up and wait!
