Relays and socket harnesses were among my van's electrical purchases. The kit belongs to the switching components, while the roof-wiring photographs show the separate physical work of routing device cables.

The item in my kit
I bought Nilight Five-Pin Automotive Relay Kit as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
I brought the roof light wires and camera cables into a PVC conduit layout. That work included drilled enclosures, threaded fittings, cable glands, solder-seal splices and grouped wiring.
During the small-box stage, I drilled for a male PVC fitting and used a fitting inside as a retaining nut. I routed the camera cable through a gland into a tee and brought the light-wire groups toward the van entry.

My build notes
The wiring project was a sequence of individual connections and routes. The photographs show the intermediate stages, including open boxes and wrapped wire groups, before the remaining covers and conduit joints were finished.
I built the cable route a section at a time, bringing local connections into the larger conduit system.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
True MODS uses a sealed relay-and-socket format, while the other Nilight harness set provides another grouped relay option; housing, lead size and mounting style distinguish them.
True MODS Five-Pin Relay and Socket
This five-pin relay is paired with a wired socket and sealed housing. A mounting tab provides an attachment point for the assembly.
These automotive relays use a control signal to switch a separate circuit. The supplied sockets provide wire leads for connecting each relay into a wiring assembly.
