MX5 Headlight relay?
AntonUK - 22/6/15 at 12:36 PM

Im looking for a Mazda mx5 mk1 B481 67 7COB headlight retractor relay. Anyone broke an mx5 and still have it.

Its the one that looks like this:

An even bigger long shot would be to ask if anyone has the connector and pigtail from the original loom?

Pretty sure I'll have one of these hidden away under my dash, headlights have been removed so if it's there I'll just chop the connector off with the plug and a few inches of wire for you... Will be working on the car later so I'll have a nosey for you

just had a look I only have a plug similar to yours but with four wires not six sorry

Stupid question... but where should this be? I've looked in all the places I think it should live, but no joy! Have a feeling mine is a 4 pin as well

could be under the bonnet

That's the other place I tried with no joy. Wondering if it's specific to a certain model of car? Mine are 1.6 Mk1s from 1990-1992 (mix of UK and Import).

After a bit of research I 'think' an alternative might be this one?

Thanks all for the help so far.

I've won a relay on ebay, so just the connector required now if anyone has one?
