GB - Hidden Winch Installation - Gauging Interest

I'm sure you're all aware of events by now so it's with regret that I can't run this GB any longer.
If anyone wants to take over the reins, please feel free to drop me a PM and I'll pass on the relevant details.
Can I take this opportunity to publicly thank Non Stick Nick, TFC and RLD for their kind assistance over the last two weeks.
It is much appreciated

Baz, I am interested, but it will definately depend on the cost - running this straight after Crimbo isn't ideal! I'd also not considered the bumper issue but I think I'd still prefer the hidden winch. I assume that a hidden bumper will not be an issue for my sump guard? Whistle

After the weekend I am considering a non hidden winch, great for ice breaking!

Actually maybe Niel thinks the "hidden" winch won't be noticed. A cunning plan indeed.

Price is key for me. Money going out the door left and right the now, but maybe this could be too good to pass up. Or just slighty too much to justify at the moment. Rolling Eyes

So put me down for a tentative yes please Thumbs Up

Would there be an option for std fitment? I know you wish to make it all the same for numbers, but is there much difference between hidden and std in work involved?

I kinda like the way the winch looks sitting out front on display.

Iain has just fitted my internal winch, and a few other goodies, just before xmas, (don't tell the misses) as she is still wandering why father Christmas never got her anything, but hey ho, anyway Iain's work excellent Smile Thumbs Up

So i would be very interested in the training day, if its going to be done down south somewhere....
