I am pretty new to relays but have a project in mind.

Looking to install brabus style puddle lights on my CLK Benz. This kit has 10 clusters of leds (12v) 5 on each side of the car.

Usually these pods should activate when the specific door opens (left only when left door open, right only when right door opens). What i would like to do is the following:

1. Be able to override all relays and turn on both of the sides at will.

2. Door open would activate only the specific side (as described above)

3. Turn signal to activate either side of the pod lights (blink pods while turning)

4. Turn both sides on when in reverse.

I think i may need 3 or 4 relays and a few switches. I can get all the required inputs from the car.

Thanks for your help.

Is this what you mean to say?
