Where do the T/T relays go?

I purchased 1996 60hp Mariner w/tilt assist. The seller included a power T/T unit off a 1995 40hp Mercury. I swapped everything, It was a direct replacement and everything works as it should. However the relays on the Mercury were under the cover for the electronic components, wrapped in foam insulation and just sitting in a pocket . I got them under the cover like on the Mercury, but they don't fit well. Looking online the Mariner shows each relay with mounting brackets. Where do they mount on the Mariner?

The relays from the Mercury have no brackets, just wrapped up like a cocoon. The Mariner parts diagram and looking at used ones on E-bay shows each relay with a small mounting bracket.

They should have a bracket with a rubber grommet that bolts on the the motor or in the motor housing. I'll take picks of were there mounted on mine and see if that gives you a better reference. I'll post them ASAP tomorrow.

Open2hardwater,

Could you tell me if the wiring from the trim motor is held in place or attached to anything on it way up through the hole in the transom mounting bracket before it goes through the cowl grommet? Maybe it just hangs in limbo, but it seem like they wouldn't want it flapping around loose. Thanks
