    It comes with a crappy lid mounted brush which is less than average, just do a neat job and don't alow for cleanup as I had and it's great stuff mate. I just did it thinking I could clean up the edges but couldn't.

    Good stuff for what it is

    Jump on Gigglepin web site and they sell the lug boots for $5 each I think or less

    I have my solenoid setting next to the battery as per one of the earlier posts. My next project is to pull it out of its box and remote mount the controller. _its a pain openong the bonnet to plug the contrller in.

    I run an isolator to the switching side of the Solenoid mate, easy to keep it dead that way as its low current.

    With my new setup though I am fitting a 600amp constant rate kill switch on the back of the centre console to isolate the power to the whole 24v system should everything go to poo.

    I have mine sitting up in the corner next to the booster. Its tight but there's a few bolt holes than allow for a bracket to be made up. A nutsert kit is your best friend in these situations. I didn't own one at the time when I installed the winch but I sure as hell do now. Also ran the plug down to behind the bonnet release lever in that little recess.

    You can even wire in a parallel rocker switch as an option/backup to the hand controller.

    The 2 small rocker switches isolate the controls. I have a nice bright LED that tells me if I left them on..
