hey, i'm working on wiring a set of relays and capacitors, to give me auto-off headlights, that'll dim off, after i open my driver side door, and the key is out.. but what i'm having a problem with now, is... what am i supposed to do with all these relays? are there aftermarket fuse box type things, that i can wire into, or anything? or am i on my own, for that? i was hoping to get most of the relays in a fairly small area (should only need 3 or 4, depending on what i pick on my final setup), and keep the relays in the engine compartment, maybe on the opposite side of the car, as the OEM underhood fuse box. any ideas or suggestions?

I would recommend trying to install the relays inside the car, under the dashboard. That way they will be protected from the weather. No box is required, just secure them away from any moving parts such as brake pedal, steering wheel, etc. Don't forget to check these items throughout their full range of motion - I've been burned in the past when I forgot that steering wheels tilt!
