I'm thinking of getting one and was just curious. I'd also like to see pictures of where you put the switch.

Also, I've read where a lot of folks are having trouble with the wiring. Does the Super ATV kit include an adaptor for the accessory plug-in?

It is a super easy install, not sure why anyone would have any problem with the wiring, think it took me 10 mins using the factory wire and 1 tap of the ACC wire under the hood.

Any pics of where you put the switch? How about where you tapped the wire? Did they include any sort of adapter? Which model did you buy?

I'm not particularly mechanically inclined, so I just wanted to make sure I could handle it before I bought one.

I installed the 4500# and I mounted a switch under the headlight switch. Just cut a rectangle out of the plastic, I went with my own switch because the one that came with the winch was made for a 4 wheeler. I’ll get some pics for you tomorrow. The relay mounts where the factory one would under the hood. The factory has the load and ground wires already in the buggy, use the supplied wire to go from the relay down to the winch and zip tie them. That’s all there is to it.

I mounted my switch under the light switch, you can really mount it anywhere you like it. I didn’t use the switch that came with the winch because it’s made for handle bars.
I just talked the acc wire under the upper hood, next to the relay mount location. The white arrow is where I tapped the acc wire, the yellow arrow is where I mounted the relay (factory winch relay mount location)
It really is super easy to wire. Even easier if you decide to get the Honda switch plate (which I did not, too expensive for me)
