Creative places for relays & switches in engine bay

Anybody have photos of particularly clean and/or easy places to install extra bosch style relays and/or full size toggle switches inside the engine bay?

I was thinking of removing the cruise control unit and making a simple bracket out of 2-3mm thick aluminum sheeting, but I'd ideally like to keep cruise control.

Just looking for idea, thanks...

I used two Bussman boxes. One with fuses and one with micro relays and fuses. Here are the mounting locations I chose. I lead a direct + feed from the battery for one and direct ignition on feed for the other. This way I could power all the time if needed and only with ignition on for other needs. I ended up with many new systems. WMI, HID fog lights, HID headlights, stealth radar detector, anti-laser, CO2 intercooler spraying system, intercooler fans, new air horn, EGT sensor and new air temp sensor monitor system and timing circuit for the CO2 spraying. 10 new systems from these two Bussman boxes. Works great.
