                    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
