I think I got the relay you need. Were from Paul when I got a load of bits linked with his/your rs.

What setup you running in Project Roosie? Is it the 2.1 or just EFI as I noticed your not using the 16v head???

i used 2 for the fuel pump, one for the twin fan set-up, and one for all of the extra switched lives. In theroy you could do it with 2- there just normal 4 pin swithcing relays!

Stu, Make sure you fuse all your live feeds mate. (Sorry if you already had)
The only reason I say that is when I did the Clifford on mine the relays they supplied were not suitable for the central locking system. I must have popped around 20 fuses.
