connorb850 Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Upon seeing this thread re-vitalized over the weekend I spent the 30 bucks and bought one from the site. I should have called. It arrived today and is the KAE branded relay. I'll get down and do the contortionists relay change this evening, but I'm not holding out much hope...~Jon←Yeah I just got an email response from them and they said that the more expensive part on Rabbit's link ( http://www.worldimpex.com/search_by_partno...955531&x=25&y=6) was the genuine VW part. I guess they were out of the KAE relays when rabbit ordered and they just sent the genuine ones instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 Yeah I just got an email response from them and they said that the more expensive part on Rabbit's link ( <a href='http://www.worldimpex.com/search_by_partno.html?searchmode=partno&partno=357955531&x=25&y=6' target='_blank'>http://www.worldimpex.com/search_by_partno...955531&x=25&y=6</a>) was the genuine VW part. I guess they were out of the KAE relays when rabbit ordered and they just sent the genuine ones instead←What's funny is that when I bought my relays about 1-2 weeks ago, the second item on the list wasn't there. All that was advertised was the K.A.E. relay! They just added that second listing - IMPEX SKU # 259272 CONTR UNIT - in the last few days.... I consider their actions deplorable. swine....

Send it back and we will credit your acct. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rabbit" <rabbitstoybox@hotmail.com> To: <sales@worldimpex.com> Sent: Saturday, July 02, 2005 3:52 PM Subject: RE: World Impex: Order # 84600 Good Day. I have not received the order as of Saturday, July 2,2005. I hope that you didn't sent it out, as I don't want the part. It is NOT a compatible replacement for the 357 955 531 / 3B0 955 531 as advertised on your website. Please cancel this order immediately, and do not charge my credit card.

Rabbit Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 :) I guess my Lucky Rabbits foot still works.... I just regret that no one else can buy them for the same price that I paid for the OEM VW relays. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColsHub Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Well, I'm throughly lost. What's the right p/n(s) and where do I get one? I'm also going to need a base for the relay. Does anyone have that p/n? Also- can anyone tell me how the relay is wired into the wiper circuit? I want to adapt one of these to my bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to adapt one of these to my bus.do a little more searching:in this forum, there is a recent post about this (within last 2-3 weeks) where MadeInJapan posted a very long and very thorough reply about part numbers and where you can currently get these relays.I have the KAE relay and it has worked great for me for a few years, but people have had trouble with it.
