Also some kind of back cover to keep out water would be nice but I may opt for something pourable to seal it really well if I can find such a product.
Maybe RTV silicone?

I do need someone with a 3D printer and the ability to design and print some black plastic insulators for the openings where the connectors come out
Can you CAD them yourself?
I wonder if a
Gate turn-off thyristor (GTO) would work well for polarity-independent regulation without having to swap arm and bat connections depending on polarity. The problem is that in industry these have been replaced with IGBT's or TRIAC's in most applications. The problem here being that IGBT's don't conduct in both directions, and TRIAC's don't turn off once they are on (they are designed for use with AC where they will naturally turn off every 1/2 cycle). So GTO's are hard to find.
