Massey 1225 PTO problems

Could someone get a pic of these parts-both the relay and the solenoid?
I would like to see what makes these parts so expensive.

The relay on the 1225 is mounted on the back side of the seat mount. Fold the seat up and the bracket under it and you will see it. The solenoid is basically under the seat. You have to remove the seat, the levers and the plate the levers go through. Take lots of pics before and during so you know how everything goes back together. Once you get all the stuff off it's easy to get to and easy to get off.

There is no reason at all that these parts are so expensive, except some of the parts for these machines are made to order as there is very little call for them. But the $$ you save doing this yourself will pay for the part.

Does anyone know the part # for the solenoid?

One would think it would be rather common, but I have not been able to turn one up online.

Local dealer wants $350.

Thanks

For the record, the part # is a 3605668M91
