Hella relay box anyone?

[rascole]

I am preparing for next project. Installing all my lights. I was searching around for relays and found this Hella relay box on Amazon. With this and the Blue Sea fuse block system. Has anyone used the relay box? Is there something else equivalent?

Never seen it but I really like that relay box. Would keep all my relays for all the lights nice tucked away!

I have a blue sea fuse block installed I bought at west marine . That relay box would be a nice addition to keep everything looking neat if you have the space for it

I did find an all in one box made by Cooper Bussman but the problem I see with that is it requires special wire connects and plugs, not the straight blade style that is so common.

I am running that same relay box. You can run the typical Pep Boy's style relays if you cut the mounting tab off.

Can you post a pic of your install please? After researching the Bussman box a little more, it seems there are a lot of other wheelers using them and they seem happy with it.

Actually, I think the Bussman is better since it has a fuse block built in. I had to buy an extra fuse block to support the relays so it looks pretty horrible.

I like the Bussmann box as well but you have to buy the special connectors and seals that require a special crimper. All good but buying the minimum quantity makes the price >$150.

Can people please post pics of what they used & where they installed it?

I'll see what I can do. Mine is buried behind the passenger headlight just forward of the airbox.

Ahh! I was thinking same place. That is where I put the control box for my Vision X lights.
