Hi Bob,

Glad to hear back from you!
Im happy it out to be only the relay that got hung up in bright mode.

I'm truly sorry that I did not mention anything about getting one used.
If I had thought about you doing that, I would have definitely advised you against it at even half that price. Did you get a long long warranty!

That's got to make you feel "bad" or "sad" but you are not letting on! You are a better man than me!

Everyone else on the board here should feel "mad" for you though.
We know that dismantlers can be high but those people resale the cream of the crop in parts. Mostly really perfect seats, body parts and hard to get items that look like new.

That relay is not from 1920's or some car that they only made a couple hundred of.

At worse case the owner should be taking the price into a range to somewhere less than half of new. That is a new one, from standard parts vendors that sell aftermarket replacements. Not unrealistic Volvo stealerships.

Did the wrecker person price the part from a local source to come up with that price?
That would have been normal business practices. IMHO.

I wonder what his "standing" is with your towns Better Business Bureau or like agency.
That wrecking yard should be boycotted by your local folk there!

Yep, you are a better man than me!

Phil
