    Update.... I went down in resistance until I could trip the relay and wound up settling on 68 ohm 1/2 watt resistors. It seems to be working, but it's generating a little too much heat for me to feel comfortable stuffing it up under the dash. The temp was fine until I had all 4 doors open for...

This would not really be an issue if I wanted...
