I think I am going to go ahead with this project. This will be my first time working on a project like this. You have given me good info and I feel better about putting it together. I'll keep researching the components and figure it out. Thanks

 

Good luck and let us know how it comes out!

That would be an absolute minimum. The automotive environment is particularly harsh, so I'd at least double those values.
