blackbear can setup your computer to turn them on, and he also makes the harness to wire them up.

but then again you hear about the harnesses burning up or eating relays. Is it really worth the cash yes a relay cost less than a motor. But a constant hassle isnt worth the mod. Im trying to be on the safe side too. Im on the fence of wondering if me making one would last better than one that cost 100 bucks. no diss to anyone. this is serious business lol so i kinda need to figure something out to install mine.

The one I made myself using $2 relays has lasted me 2+ years without a single issue. Food for thought.
