I've just been connecting the switch and relay for the heated rear window of the hardtop, the only info I could fid was for a post face lift F but mine is a pre face lift, any suggestions as to where the relay goes, is it the empty yellow socket on the bottom right of the underdash fuce box?

I remember when I did Meg's glass rear screen I just bunged a relay in the spare socket - whichever one it was! Does this pic help at all - you can just about see the relays:

If you have the yellow and red relay, then the HRW relay fits in the 3rd postion.
If not, the socket will be in the loom tucked behind the fusebox.

Perfect, that even saves me trying to work out which way around the relay goes.

If you can't find it behind the fuse box, try wwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy up the steering column. That's where mine was taped up!

Mine is like David's but with an empty socket where he has the black relay.
