O.k. I started tonight small with my claim regarding water proofed, here are some pictures where you can see what happened NOTHING it did stay try (black box). I did not put any components in to the box just to make sure so I don't loose more $$.
1st Test submerged me happy, happy, happy.
Just an Idea for blinker and brake lights.

After all this posting I forgot to take it out of the water

Guess I left it wide open for you @Tripod
Hmph. Rookies.

1st Test submerged me happy, happy, happy.Dieter, I see what you're trying to do, but since these components won't be (or shouldn't be) getting submerged, wouldn't a basic submergence test (like you've already done) be enough? I mean, I'm never one to protest against over-engineering, but I personally would be more concerned about the effects of 75-mph water droplets. Of course, I don't know how you'd test for that condition...

@mytoy I noticed the Din Rail. So what kind of relays will you be using? I install IDEC Relays and RIB Relays all the time at my job.
I wait for the miniature terminals and will change the DIN rail to a smaller one. Then the module and mini terminal blocks will be mounted to it.

here is the rating : IP66 rated enclosures protect components from power jets of water. This should answer it

Dieter, sounds like @KayTwo is volunteering to hold the box while you spray him I mean the box with 75 mph water droplets
Great job on the design sir! Thinking outside the box to come up with another great product. Hats off to you. -
I've mounted everything and here are a few pictures, I did test it and it works just have to the finish video. I'll posted later

^^^ Excellent work, Dieter!

Here is the VIDEO:

Why are you mounting the controller box under the splash guard, with as low as the SS rides I'd be worried about smacking it on something. What about mounting it on the inside of the splash shield inside the wheel well?

^^^ AND, he has mad video skillz! Love it!

@Bubblehead I'm not worried at all just look at this pictures, the black box stick less then 2 inches out.

That is just too cool for words......

Very cool progress!
Is it me or is the order not sequential, rather random? Just asking...

It is sequential, when I activated them I used a manual switch so the timing was not perfect.

Cool Dieter! Thanks for the clarification...

I know some members of our great forum asked how much it would cost.
I first have to see how much of interest is out there. It is not cheap, the material costs alone where around $ 500.00, without powder coating, drilling, taping, assembly, and testing.
After that I'll will work also on instruction how to install the kit, after that I will post it with a price.
I had a typo in the material costs it it around $ 400.00 for both sides -

Actually @MiM you where correct, I just checked my video in super slow (frame by frame) so I have to change the wiring (switch from one terminal to the other). Good eyes, see (what I did) what happens when you get older.
