I just screen shot from video and added notes to it. Instead of watch entire video, this will help me to do the job. Thought it’s also helpful for our folks here so I summarized in 1 photoI am not sure what you are showing that is different form video , they direct connected to battery as well?
please explain .
You are correct!I am not sure what you are showing that is different form video , they direct connected to battery as well?

More video shows that winch wiring should be connected directly to main batteryQuick summary from video with my 1 simple photo. See attachment
True storyBy the way Tech support at DV8 told me that they didn't wire winch to battery they just mounted bumper and winch for photo shoot . So they have no idea how to wire winch .

Can’t wait to see everyone’s setups!Ordered a set yesterday. All will be delivered by tomorrow! It will keep me busy this weekend
Thanks to bro ryroam250
Mission completed DIY destructed and constructed/installed the front bumper + integrated/hidden winch + light bar. It just looks OEM. I am happy with its “perfection”Can’t wait to see everyone’s setups!
I didn’t have time to wire the winch yet.Can you show how you did the hook ups in the engine bay?
Looks really good

You may notice on attached photos that I “deleted” (saw off) the dv8 logo at the light bar. I am the design guy who focus on the design details and functions so that logo bothers me
You may need full steel bumper with brush guard. It will be way heavier and change the OEM look of LCHow well will this protect the upper part of the hood? We have a lot of deer in our area and I'm already 1 holy @$%^ and 4 near misses from hitting one. I hear that deer typically go under the car but would like to protect the top as well given the repair costs.
I just found the winch wiring kit from Dissent Off-road LC250 Winch Wiring KitI didn’t have time to wire the winch yet.
Should be straightforward stuff.
I will get this cable set from Amazon and follow the diagram (see attached photo) to power the winch directly from rear battery. DO NOT connect it to the positive/hot and negative/ground in the engine bay. They are not enough power as designed
By chances, I attached couple “scary” naked front ends behind the scenes
