Looking for help from the wise sages on here please

As per title does anyone know where this is located in the car. My indicators packed up a few weeks ago and the car is with an Auto electrician to have it sorted (yes I know I know I should do it myself, but I dont have a garage and its cold!) but he can't find the relay unit, there are some relays in the passenger footwell but apparantly not this one

Suggestions welcome

Thanks for the quick response, I should have said it was an S3!

The chap claims it is not there though, any other likely locations, also, I assume it is a standard Ford relay unit?

Sorry mate, my only relay related knowledge is the AA wink

Any news from the previous owner or is he too busy replacing my door hinges?!
He has no idea, but says he didnt hide it, I'm not sure though, it may be a cunning plan (so cunning you could pin a tail on it and call it Bob) to get it back to WSM I think smile

Get some fitted to your "winter toy" (i.e. S3) now then swap onto bike in summer. Trust me, getting more use from them will help to make the expense easier to justify silly
I dont want to make the S quieter by fitting Akra's/Yoshi's too it biggrin

Glad you found it and that the relay was the problem but come on Adrian, spill the beans, where did you find it?
It was apparently located across the steering cross memner on the drivers side, wherever that is smile
