Has anyone any links where I can buy a decent relay removal tool ? Currently I use a bent piece of stainless steel old ruler, but would like to get something that grips both sides at once, and avoid a dismantled relay, Uk only ?

I always carry these in car.

Good on single size relays, less use with double relays so they were no help with Mark's last saturday, mind you only the base was left in the socket so not much to grip! You still have to be careful to grip base to avoid pulling can off but used properly they are fine.

Good tip is to loop tie-wrap under relay before installing, then you can just pull the loop to remove relay in future.
