I was originally considering that mod, but none of my "19" relays are like
his! I have an EAP and a Hella. The Hella one is newer than his and all the
components are tiny little surface-mount dealies, so there's no WAY I'm
getting near it with a soldering iron. The EAP's are older thru-hole parts
types, but the layout is such that the resistors are hidden under the
mechanical relay part. I bet there are a dozen different variants of the 19.
