Two Relay Board Activated By Low Signal Optocouplers

There we go, I have a small PCB board set up with two 12V Mini 10 Amp Songo Relays that are each activated separately by two Optocouplers. I only need one side of this board for right now to complete the wiring scenario I mentioned in my last post for turning on the Lower Console switch lights as part of the Knight Rider dash start up sequence.
The Red and Black wires you see coming in from the left side end of the board will ultimately be spliced into the wires that connect from the Voice Box to the last set of lights in the Top Countdown indicators, this way when the Knight Rider V.B. activates those lights a signal will be sent to the Optocoupler, activating my Relay and closing the power connection to the Lower Console switch lights. I did a little tweaking to my diagram so here it is again just so you can see my minor tweaks ;)

Clear Coating The Voice Box Bezel


Above are my before and after shots of my Voice Box Bezel after it had been clear coated. As you can see I masked off the surrounding area and then gave it a good coat of Clear Coat. I did end up doing a little wet sanding first with a 1000 grit stage 4 sand paper just to take out any of the brush strokes from my painting with the fine tip brush. Cleaned it up with a Q-Tip and a Tack Cloth before applying the Clear Coat and there you have, one shiny Voice Box to match the rest of my nice shiny Knight Rider Dash :)
