 I installed 3 new micro relays in my 90 model. Here is the part #NTE R46-5D12-12, these are rated at 12 amps. The OEM ones were just 5 amps.
 If you have a soldering Iron, solder and a bit of skill you can replace them quite easily.

Where did you get the relays?

 Local electronics store, but if you want you can order on line. It would be cheaper. But our local guys could use a few bucks from the locals.
 Centennial Electronics on Bijou st here in Colorado Springs. 3 w/ tax less than $12.

Ive replaced them and it is easy. For the "I'm stuck on the side of the road and I cant start" I tuned the key on and started tapping the relays until the lights came up. Worked actually for a month or two.
