you could replace your "old skool" relays with six of these little beaut's..... Solid State Relay?


Reckon they'd look pretty cool in here (although with all those heat sink spikes maybe not that cool)

Putting them in a non-ventilated insulated enclosure might defeat the purpose of the heat sink. I suspect they'd be much happier in the conventional position in the passenger's footwell with the normal ventilation. Coincidentally I've been thinking about something similar for a variable speed fan/water pump controller. The recent increase in drone popularity have brought the price of motor controllers down drastically.
