I though I would pick up a couple of these at $4 each as spares. One slight problem, they are missing a post. All 914 flashers early and late have 4 posts. Aren't reproductions supposed to be correct? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) It would cost almost as much to return them as they are worth.

A real flasher relay has 2 coils and 2 sets of contacts inside. One set flashes the exterior lights and the other flashes the dash indicator. That is why they have 4 terminals.
