If you are thinking this rescue is going to be inexpensive and its OK to skip the odd $100 factory part, you have picked the wrong car. Through a lot of trial and error as a group we have found dozens of areas where savings are possible, but for the most part there really is no clean long term safe option to factory parts either new or used.
OTOH sometimes people will open up the old relay and clean the contacts etc and get a bit more use out of them. |

You might get lucky and 928 Int'l has one but last couple times I checked they were out. Have to splurge and buy the new one, it's expensive but works as it should. There is no work around as far as I know.
