Ok, so I'm a fan of YouTube University. No clue what the mascot is (go ... influencers! ... i dunno i need more coffee ...).

I want to learn about Aux Switches and Relays. I'm planning on making a switchboard on a molle panel that'll also hold GMRS/CB. I know how switches work, but i want to be able to use a relay pod under the hood. Kinda don't like THAT much voltage above my head. Most of the packages I'm finding with the switch panel with the relay pod ... eh, I just don't like the switches. I don't like the feel of the tiny push buttons, I want the old school FLIP *click* kinda switch ... T'was the 'Tism, m'lord ...

Are there any YouTube vids out there that you guys would recommend going into how to wire your own relay pod, or something along those lines?

I think as long as you get the relay pod, the wiring between the switches and the relay pod is relatively simple. Any decent switch bank should be able to handle the current required to operate the relays. If the relay pod comes with a wiring harness, or has a separate one you can purchase, just get that and cut out whatever connector is used for their switch pod and wire directly to your switches of choice.
