Default Relays?

So I found these relays and pulled up the spec sheet on line. They are same size and same pin configurations. Same everything it appears.
Anyone use these before as a replacement to our stock OMRON ones. THinking at this price I'll just replace all of them. Beats the $15 ea at the autostore.

doesnt tell what amperage they are good for,, the relays you have in the car are for fans,etc. which pull some amps. I would be sure of the rating before I installed them,, if its good go for it,, I paid 50.00 at autozone for my 3 fan relays.

What are the amp ratings on the stock relays? Both the big ones and the smaller ones?
I've been researching and still come up blank.

Looks to be 30A. I'm picking up 4 of these and gonna see what happens. You can't beat the price. Like RARRON455 said, it's about $50 at parts store. STUPID markup.

I was trying to find the spec sheet on the OMRON, but no luck. Anyone know of one. Couldn't even find it on their web site.

Crap! Minimum $10 order. Hmmmm. Going to see what else I can find on that site.

Added a few LED flashlights. So For the price of one at the parts store, I got 4. I'll let you know how they work out if you are interested.

We'll see. It was cheap enough I don't mind taking one for the team. Enough people on here need to replace them I imagine, and like I said, for the price of one at the autoparts store, I just got 4 and two flashlights. I'll keep you guys posted.

Got my relays, replaced all 4 of them. Started the car and ran it for 20 min in the garage. No issues so far. All seems well. So this is a good deal. Pass it on!
