Never mind, found what I was looking for.....
 






share with the group?
 






Here and here for starters.....based just on the part number of Tyco #: V23234C0001X006
 






Any auto parts store... Standard part # ry-30.

Now you show up with an answer..:D...Where were you when I was Googling like a madman because I had no clue as to what they were called.....




I had no clue as to a part number, I was goggling dual pin 87 relay and several other things and coming up with nothing.
 






RY-30 is not the dual 87 relay, it is the relay with 87 & 87a....according to this .....looking for a relay where the feed wires each have there own terminal....
 






Sorry, the ones you posted are the same as those ry-30 relays that snoranger posted. Pin 87a is normally closed to pin 30, and pin 87 to 30 is normally open. When you put power to 86 and 85, it switches pin 87 and 87a.

Why would you need two pin 87s? You would get the same effect by splicing together the two wires that you would have put to pin 87.

It might help more if you tell us what kind of circuit you want to make.

Put relays on headlights, this way you do not have to splice the 2 together....one of the links has a pdf link, it clearly shows 2 87 terminals, no 87a....http://www.waytekwire.com/datasheet/75402.pdf
 






Thats completely pointless. If it could handle more amps, I could see it making a difference... But it cant.

Have a look at all the other pictures... The ones showing the pin out. Those pictures don't match the last one.

Besides, even if you did have two pins on one side of the switch that are both switched the same, you still only have one pin on the other... So it won't really make any difference now will it? Nothing wrong with splicing wires together or attaching two wires to one terminal... it will work exactly the same.
