well they come with two switches one in cab and a remote the remoter fits right under the headlight and the in cab you should position were it is eay to get to. remember you will only need this in the worst situation. also check out synthetic cable it is alot nicer

here is mine.

remove bracket from the switch (1 screw), cut dash, push switch through, attach bracket back to switch and too dash, some black silicone, and voila.

Placed here I can steer with left hand, keep the Rhino under power and work the switch with the right hand.

On the 660 I have it on the left side of steering col. and do not like it as much as the right side. Seems more practical/useful here and we probably average 5+ stucks per ride

here is mine, was really easy. Decided to put the remote up front, i think it looks better and i can access it easy, while staying out by the winch.

I just installed a venom 4500x wide spool yesterday and didn't have to rotate anything. I cut out the no driver under 16 in the warning and placed my remote plug there. I am going to mount my rocker switch on the steering column
