Yes, that all sounds correct.

I used this waterproof relay box: https://amzn.to/3tUamsQ
I used this waterproof breaker: https://amzn.to/3u07Hy3

I had to make my own custom mount for the relay box. I made it fit between the Ford fuse box and the sheet metal with no extra space so that the weight of the relay box cannot pull off the fuse box lid when you go offroading (It's pretty weak—I wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of people are driving around with fuse boxes that are not completely sealed as mine can could come loose without even pulling on the securing clips. Now with my relay box on there it is not possible for the fuse box lid to come off).

Thanks again for the info.

What is the connector/terminal in this pic? Looks like a ferrule but I’m not quite sure. It seems to fit perfectly in the 200A breaker in your other pics.

Also how do you like your Baja Designs linkable lights so far? One review I saw said the top part of the black housing is fading with white streak after one year. Curious about your experience.

The connector comes with the breaker. It fits into the connection. I solder the hell out of mine so it becomes like a solid chunk of metal. Then you put the connector into the breaker and secure it with the set screw.

No fading issues. But I did replace two of the pods with XL80s to make it brighter. I made a brightness video somewhere so I just need to find it and post it. But I just bought the ADD Phantom bumper which has cutouts already in it for some Rigid light bars so all the lights in this post will be for sale really soon.

Did you 3D print the custom mount for the relay box? Looks awesome. Any chance you could share it if you did?

Yes, 3D printed. The file is here: https://www.dananeibert.com/client/forum/Raptor-Relay-Box-Mount.stl
You will want to make sure it is printed with something that can handle high temps as it gets hot in the engine bay. A lot of 3D printer material can get soft when subjected to heat.

I used 3M VHB tape to secure it to my fuse box lid. It's the same tape that car companies use to attach badges onto cars to so it's really strong. Obviously, make sure that fuse box lid is super clean and at a decent ambient temp when you put the mount on so it will stay on permanently. Also, you can see that I have thumb screws securing the relay box to the mount (so you can remove it in the field without tools). I used these thumb screws and just self tapped them in with some pliers.

So, obviously, that mount is the perfect fit for my Raptor BUT I could see the metal flange above it being different distances on each truck as that flange is probably not a precision bend and probably has an acceptable tolerance at the factory of up to a tenth of an inch. You might have to bend yours in either direction for a good fit.
