    Strange Headlight - Griso

    JAS.... these relays are pretty common now ...I just scored 4 or 5 of them from a smashed late model fords' footwell circuit/fuse panel and they are in one under the bonnet as well. I might use a couple to relay my Nouvo Falcone's headlight as they will fit much more easily in the small shell.

    Griso - Another oil warning light issue

    There is a switch for VW Caravelle and/or other VW group vehicles that switch above 10psi. It uses the correct thread but a different elect connection. I use this on the T3 and if the Griso ever plays up I'll use it for that also.
