You should seriously look at Crestron. Used gear can be found on Ebay for very reasonable prices.

An ST-CP with one or two ST-IO's would be ideal, and (when you can find them) usually go for around $300. This would give you *RF* control, which would be far superior to IR in an outdoor environment. Crestron makes a few buttoned RF remotes, including a new waterproof one, or you could opt for one of their touchscreens -- how cool would that be, at a car show :-)

If you prefer to use only new equipment, but spend less money than for Crestron, you could use a Pronto or MX-700/800. Then use either an Adicon Ocelot/SECU-16 or Xantech CC62 to provide the relay outputs.

Email me if you'd like more info...
