Any interest in yet another relay upgrade kit?

Post by sirrus »

Recently I've started building compact waterproof relay modules for my GW with intent of using them for all door power windows, tailgate (already installed) and power locks (that would be the last one, still need to figure out wiring). I've described tailgate install in details with some pictures in my build thread.

Today I thought that if there is interest for them I can start selling them. Complete kit (wired box with mounting plate, 2 relays and all required connectors) would be something around $50.

Let me know what you think

OK, I see there's some interest for those - I'd say that's enough for me to start making few more and we'll see where it goes.

I wanted to say is that so far I've only installed tailgate box on my Jeep (working really good, no issues at all) - that gives me knowledge on how long should wires be and what connectors are easier to use there. I'm planning to start installing window relays next week - after that I'll be ready to build boxes for windows. Power locks will next thing after that. I don't want to sell something that I haven't tried and tested myself - hopefully that makes sense

Having said that I have 1 tailgate box ready to go right now and can probably make a couple more later this week.
gilbedw, if you want it - shoot me a PM

P.S. Another thing that crossed my mind yesterday was that I can make headlight harness using the same GEP box, eliminating two inline fuses and those big Bosch-style waterproof relays (I have pictures of my original design installed in this post) while keeping it waterproof and plug-and-play. I still have to figure out the exact price but I expect it to be $70-80 plus shipping. Let me know if there's interest for that

Yes please. I have 4 lock actuators. Do I just need one for driver switch?

Yes, for locks it is one module, I think it would be in passenger door after switch - still have to install mine and test
