<p>Are these boxes sealed? We got into ours from a BN2, and had to
drill out a couple spot welds. <br>
</p>
<p>After installing a new harness, the turn indicators didn't
function properly. 'Assuming' the problem was in the relay box,
we opened it up only to find out later the harness had a couple
wires mislabeled (wrong color/trace). This really pissed me off
as otherwise I had the harness wired 100% correct (not to mention
'violating' an original flasher box).</p>

style="font-family:"Trebuchet
MS",sans-serif">Simon, I’ve had mine out
twice, most recently last weekend when I replaced it
while the engine is out for a rebuild (it was a lot
easier to sit in the engine bay than reach over!).
Using a long thin flat blade screwdriver, loosen the
terminals one at a time. I was perhaps fortunate
that my wires are basically “trained” to lay in
order so keeping them straight was not a problem,
but if in doubt label them first. Ira’s
right—seeing the color codes can be tricky unless
everything is really clean! Remove the bottom
screw last. Removing the top 2 screws is the
problem as they are blocked by the air trunking. If
there is no way to get to them from the front, and
there probably isn’t, you can drill them out through
the captive nuts in the wheel well. Yes, that ruins
the nuts, but there is an easy solution to that.
Before reinstalling the relay unit, put 2 U-type
spring clip speed nuts on the flange over the
outboard holes. Install the bottom machine screw to
finger tight to hold the unit in place, then use 2
sheet metal screws through the drilled out nuts to
secure the top. Or 1 screw—I’m pretty sure 3 screws
in that is overkill. You may have to move the unit
slightly side to side to line up the holes, but it
will work fine and is much easier than trying to go
in from the front.</span><span
