I ordered one last night. Says it takes 3 weeks to deliver. (must be coming from china via boat...) When it comes I'll take some pics and report my statisfaction with it.

I have used autoloc relays for last 26 years on my Rockytopper camper lift system with remote controller they have been pretty reliable to date. I have them on my cutlass A/C fan request? They are individual but pretty much weatherproof and have a mounting tab very easy to package your self and they sell a very nice single or double pig tail connector to gang two together that plugs in nice. I was a dealer haven't bought in years but I see summit carry's them.

Wow, $28 for a single relay with a connector? I can assure you Autoloc doesn't make those relays. They're probably made by some other company like Bosch or Tyco and are around $5 each. The connector can't be but a couple of bucks, and I'd rather terminate them myself than use a butt connector on a pigtail. You can do WAY better pricewise. I've bought a lot of stuff from Waytech and Del City for a lot less.

Lol ya that is a bit pricey but anyhow that was the only style I had found for mounting its very common among brands. But you got me searching and found this. Ever here of hella products?

they can be ganged together if needed.

Hella has been in the offroad lighting business for many years. Products like you'd see above the cab on an offroad truck. Since many of these lights draw a lot of power, it makes sense for them to sell relays for their installation.

I've bought a lot of stuff from Waytek and DelCity and parts are cheap but name brands. I built my fuse block using their parts and my console is packed with their breakers and relays along with the Dakota Digital controllers. Now I have to replace my DD PAK-2700 fan controller with a PAK-2750 to avoid having to use another sender .

Wish I'd looked for a weatherproof box for my fan relays....but I'll seal this one up. Have 12V and ground terminals in it. Sometimes on a fully painted car it's hard to find grounding points.

Laszlo,
What are you using for a grommet for where the loom passes thru the firewall/trans tunnel?

A grommet.

I moved the hole from the tranny tunnel area to the firewall. It was too hard to get wires down and around the bellhousing, and they're pretty well hidden by the intake manifold.

Here's how I originally did it....

I wonder if one or two AMP plugs would work (hidden of course)?
