Savage Motorsport switches

Can somebody tell me do the savage switches come with the necessary contact blocks or are they all just SPST and need relays to control the devices.

I have a full set of these fitted, and they all came with mini 6 way relays, hope this helps,

The savage switches do not come with a relay of any sort.
They're double pole switches and have a rating of 10amps max, all heavy duty circuits will require a relay wiring in.

Quite often people refer to the block connector as a relay, it's not a relay at all, it just a double pole switch, which attaches to the aluminium fascia, this in turn holds the latching mechanism where required.

As Chris said, they are double pole changeover switches and 10 Amps will probably do most things without the addition of a relay except maybe for headlights. I used their 'starter' switch and just to be safe I wired both poles together to increase the current rating.

Thanks for the info
