Nobody stocks them locally, I'll have to see if the dealer does Monday before ordering one online.
I had the exact same issue FWIW.

I went with a "beefier" relay from Amazon (brass with a large ceramic heat sink). I didn't want to keep replacing the stock one every 4 years. Had to mod the connector to make it work, terminals are labeled, and it was only $20 with free shipping.
