Stabilant 22 - That made very interesting reading, but soesn't sound as if
its all things to all (electrical joints), though t might be. Certainly,
more in the switchgear/relay arena. In fact, using Stabilant in the vanagon
headlight switch might preclude the need for a realy kit upgrade - ?
Great link - Ta!
