Installing a Ramsey wireless winch on a Rincon. Need to connect a wire to the Honda accessory wire...where can I find this wire?
Also any ideas on locations for mounting the receiver and antenna?

Just got my Ramsey wireless vis U.P.S. yesterday and will be installing it tonight (and probably all day tomorrow too) on my '05 Arctic Cat. I won't know much about helping you out on yours until after I get into mine tonight - sorry.

Mounting the winch is not a problem but trying route all the wires is a pain.

The best way is to tap into the 12v hot wire off the accessory plug. I don't remember the color, but a test light can make that determination in short order.

Prong - I thought about that and put a tester on it only to find that it is hot all the time, even when the key is in the off position. I'm afraid that would put a constsnt drain on the battery.

That's odd. My Foreman only has power when the key's "on". Hopefully another Rincon owner can help you out with how they did their wiring.
