			 I'm having difficulties with the regulator and my mechanic wants to replace the voltage regulator on the relay board with this one that attached directly to the alternator. I've never heard of this on a 914. Is this legit?

			 About a year and a half ago, I scored 8 NOS Bosch VRs.  I offered them up to folks here for $80-90 shipped and it took nearly 2 years to sell them all. The aftermarket VRs and reconfiguring folks are going to when NOS Bosch VRs are still out there for under $100 is surprising to me.
