-consider ordering bluetooth relays from UK or consider alternatives for switching mechanism other than second motherboard.
-visit Pep Boys and set aside lights, cable, fusebox, wires, etc to be ordered
-write bluetooth connectivity software and input software
-find suitable Host motherboard (small profile and usb bootable)
-write proposal document
-create second presentation document for semester "final presentation"
-bring all devices into workroom and lay everything out on table
Addendum:
A device was found which may help with switching the automotive relays by providing a 5V signal:
IOGear Bluetooth Serial Adapter (already have 3):
