What is the right part number for the hi/lo beam headlight relay?
Is this it?
141-951-253-B-M5206
or
141-951-253-B
My relay is mangled and now just clicks but doesn't ratchet anymore.
Thanks in advance.

Neither.
The available replacement is VW 111-941-583, but requires a jumper from tab 30 to 56 to work properly in a 914.

Thanks James - that is just what I needed!

Sorry - Ratchet relay is an old habit - flip/flop or clutch relay might be better wording. I tried tweaking the plunger that selects the different switch positions but it is too bent to get back and be reliable.
Thanks!

Yep, and the proper technical term is a latching relay (but I knew what you meant
).
