New Leaf Spring 289 Just Finished

[Armrer]

Thanks for posting the pics, Larry! Above images show the Lucas DB10 (available from XKs Unlimited, etc.).

I bought 2, removed the covers and cut & spliced them to cover the SPF relays as a single cover wasn't quite long enough. After cutting the mounting ears off the relay base, I Tig welded the cover halves together, filled unused stamped letters, and welded the ears to the inside of the new stretched cover along with some dummy fastener heads.

I bonded some strong magnets (found at Lowe's furniture hardware section) with Contact cement to the front of the relay housing. The thickness of the magnets juuuust contact the cover. I added a dummy wire loom to the firewall with 2 sided Wirth emblem tape.

I painted the cover after the mods with silver aerosol, and added a schematic inside for road-side relay I.D. to finish it off
