fitted the remote central locking kit I bought off fleebay months go

Was actually easier than I thought. Two wires into the connector on the back of the fusebox (which I connected the wrong way round so the unlock button locked it and the lock button unlocked it, but easily swapped around)
Found a live connection behind the centre console where a bundle of wires that were in for the stereo that was fitted when I bought the truck and bobs yer uncle.. I didn't get time to wire in the indicator wires that flash when lock/unlock,. but I can live without that for now..

there's also a window wind up option, haven't decided whether to bother with that yet, see how I get on with the indicators next time I have a spare hour and its light!

Does it matter that the fogs are covered?
I am not sure on a winch want something cheap if I am to fit one as it will probably never get used.

Dont think it matters about the front fogs (MOT wise that is) just the rear
just wont be as effective in the fog when you turn them on. You could always mount other fogs hanging from the bar and use the existing wiring

I really dont like the look of it, Bar is too straight, if it had been A shaped then might have looked better & I dont see the reasoning on the outrigger bars, is it a bumper or a winch tray ????

where did you get it ????

these are just my opinion by the way
