I dig that people are tackling these projects and do their research on what to buy/etc, and do a good job making the panels/harnesses... but the design is the most important part!! Proper diagramming means that you know EXACTLY what is on each circuit, and design each circuit for maximum functionality with the minimum number of parts (among other things)... that's where a lot of your reliability comes in.

Serviceability is next, make sure you're not throwing those panels some place where they're going to be stepped on or get wet or whatever, but lets make sure you can get to them (preferably while strapped in) if you need to check something.
Thanks Jordan, this is my first time doing something like this so any input from you guys will help.
so far im only using 8 of the relays.
quick question, for the wipers im using only Low/High speeds do i need to run 2 relays?

thanks
