Looks like a simple 2 pin relay, any should work although you may have to mess about with the connections.

Thanks Jamie :thumbs:

So if i can't find one with the same connector, i will get a normal 2 pin relay. So would you just put a different connector on the wiring loom side to match the new relay?

Yeah it will work with a similar rated flasher unit. They are simple little units inside, the relay coil and switch are pretty much inline, but the metal strip is made of two metals, and as they get hot from the current they deform differently and spring apart, cool and then spring back (rinse, repeat), hence the flash interval, and why with LED's they don't work :) They required the heat generated from the current of the bulb :)

Hope that helps :)
