I had a problem with the relay not going onto the base. As mentioned the base isn't part of the original design for the fuse/relay box. The base ended up bending back as I tried to install the relay - this was on the side of the road on the way to work. I had the spare relay but unfortunately had to call for the tow truck.

The solution for me was to drop the fuse box. Thankfully it was not too difficult (at home in the garage) and it seems like the best way to make sure you've got a good connection between the relay and base.

The fuse box has tabs on both ends that slide into the "J" shaped hangers. I think it has to slide up then towards the rear of the car before it can be lowered. I'm pretty sure the late cars are different.

YMMV
