Is this the relay that bolts into the very front interior wall directly in front of the left headlight on the '84-'87models? (not the relays that attach to side of each headlight bucket).

it is the relay that is on the side of the left headlight screwed to the wall of the body. The relay that is in front is front is the the fan relay. This is not the relay that is attached to the headlights.
Yeah, I discovered the one in the very front is the fan relay - didn't think that was the relay you're talking about. I guess the one you're selling is the sguare flat one for the 87-88 models on the left outside body. I'm not in need of one those at the present but at your price, it's a good deal. Good luck, someone will grab it pretty quick.

The modual I have is not for an 87-88. This is for the 84-86.
for the new folks learning about there headlight system this is an isolation relay. This is located on the 84-86 Fieros on the inner side of the left front headlight area. It is screwed in by 2 7mm bolts to the left of your drivers headlight., This is not the one connected to the headlight bucket itself. If your lights are not getting a signal to go up or down then this is most likely the issue. Fiero store does not sell these as of yet. Here is a photo of what it will look like out of your car. Also the pin configuration is different then the ones on your motors as well.
I can't believe I've never had one of these go out - all the relays throughout the car I've changed at one time or another. I never even noticed the thing when it was right in front of my face (OK, so I'm not an ASE mechanic!) If you still have it, I'll take it. Now that I know it's there, it'll likely go out and I'll have one to plug in.
