So did you wire them to relays or direct to the winch solenoid like we discussed previously?

I wired each switch to it's own relay. I figured why chance it.

And mounted up my Rigid Dually reverse light. I'm waiting on the male pigtail from Rigid so I can get it wired up. The shield was for tree branches, etc but I may lose it or modify the mount.

Went and did a little wheeling with some guys from the Clemson Offroad Club. Had a great time and ran some pretty fun trails. Managed to slightly bend my 1.5x.25" DOM panhard bar, dent the rear corner and royally bash my bumper. Time to get the RTE on!
