Your buddy must have gone with the zip tied 9/16 wrench and under hood Purple-K mod. LOL. I did the doghead mod before I even put my truck on the road.

Really? No kidding? I don't have to wait for anything, I bypassed the GP card. Never once did I discredit CUCV Electric. They have great products. The original style relay, improved or not, is unreliable. It's a relay, not a solinoid. RELAX!
