    Not that I've seen but it honestly wouldn't be too hard to make a simple iOS app that exposes Bluetooth commands to Siri/Shortcuts. It wouldn't be through Homekit since you don't have a Apple TV/iPad/Homepod hub in the vehicle or a network but setting up Shortcuts could basically give you the same effect.

    Do you know if these types of relays also allow the wiring of a manual switch? Meaning I could control an accessory via Bluetooth or a switch in the cab?

    Looks like it uses an Xbee footprint, so you could do wifi or xbee/zigbee as well. Neat.

    The board you linked wants a 5V input, so you'd probably want to cannibalize a phone charger or something to run it.
