The early cars only had 2 relays, even with overdrive. In 74, when the
dreaded seat belt interlock system arrived, the cars still had 2 relays but
now were using J type overdrives which did not require a relay.

I added an A type overdrive to my 74 TR6 and mounted a 3rd relay next to the
other 2, between the relays and the wiper motor. The 1 mounting tab uses the
mounting tabs on the body for the other 2 relays, the other side is
unattached. It's been there since 1983 and works fine.
