It was a DPDT contact and had to cut one leg off as well as one frame leg did not match up with the hole. With a little bending of the solder lugs I was able to "make" it fit. I'll install the RCM tomorrow and see how it goes. Been using my spare RCM and now this questionable RCM relay change will be my spare should things work out well.
There are two patterns for this relay, the European one and the North American one. The one you want is the European one. You would have been wise to order the correct part number. I had input way back in 2013 concerning these relays, see attached files below and started a thread on the subject. I have two spare relays I got from pizzaguy as well as a spare RCM., you can never be too safe with the RCM.
For a minimum order of 10, try this company
