do you have an Assembly manual? If you look at originals and reproduction relays, your mounting tab is bent at a 90 degree angle, it should be straight. You definitely have it mounted incorrectly.

I looked at the AIM. mine was not clear and if it’s bent straight won’t it hit the radio even more ?

I think the connecting pints face away from the radio, back towards the Driver.

thank you, so you think the relay points back towards the shifter? i will try that, hopefully the wires are long enough too reach that...i did find a AIM picture on line that shows it pointing straight up? that seemed odd? ....i still hope someone might have a picture...thanks again troy
