I am about to add relays too, and I was told that the relays should be 
positioned as close as possible to the battery, to reduce the length of 
the wire and thus the voltage drop. Any particular advantage to the way 
you set it up? (ie, relays inside car). I apologize if I didn't notice 
it, but the way things are phrased in your page it seems like you have 
the relays under the dash.

(In fact I went to junkyards and got me 2-3 of the relay holders that are 
found in Sciroccos mounted right in front of the battery, for the fan 
relay, in order to mount them next to the fan-relay holder and put the light 
relays in there.)
