You should try and clean the female contacts in the relay housing by sticking a nail file down there a few times to scrape off carbon build up- I wouldn't use any contact cleaner because it can melt certain plastics.
You could have purchased a used headlight relay complete from a salvage yard for $25.00. A new one from an indy shop should be less than $75.00 also! If you paid that for a male electrical prong- I think you were grossly taken advantage of. Dirty contacts build up heat and cause problems in this headlight relay. I have had success cleaning the tail light bulb contacts with sandpaper and recommend you try the skinny nail file to clean the relay contacts. Good luck!!
