warn winch 9.5xp making it safe and A bar

Need some advice please.
Have Disco 3 09 reg with factory fitted warn 9.5xp winch, it stickes out alot at the front, any advice re the legality. Have viewed G4 Disco 3 does the A bar fit the 09 Disco 3 and if so any advice where to get them from.
Any advice on fitting remote control winch system, best one and from where.
Any sensible advice gratefully received.
Thanks

Warn make a remote control to fit the winch fitted to your D3. About cira £115.

There are two types of A-bar winch and non winch, sometimes appear in the for sale and wanted section here.

Vehicle winchs are, at this time, exempt from vehicle frontal protection regs i.e bull bars, ARB bars etc

Yep. At least you can see it, although approach angle is a bit crap at times.

Nick @ Yeovil Parts - The Large One on here.

LR005743 is current winch-type, I believe.
