No, but the new Bosch replacement is awful. I had the solid state for a while but after 2 years it got wonky too. I am now using this with good results. It's adjustable.

Bought the same, works as expected however mounting required slotting the holes. Attached Image

Mark,

I'm still running the one you sold me but I did pick-up the one Restoration Design is selling for $34. It's a Herth+Buss. Boy that looks almost the same. These holes will need to be slotted for sure. I'll test it out when I get a chance.

A friend had a Hella that looked just like that. The connectors are in a different place and it was hard to plug in. Then the holes did not line up with the holes in the telay board.

Mark,
The one on the left is one you sold to me with the oversized holes.

I am running the Beru Regulator.

Had to redrill the holes in the regulator, But you probably could redrill the holes in the relay board.

Also I had to trim some of the relay board cover to fit.

It works fine other than that.
