Default Show me winch wiring routing please

How did you guys run your winch wiring? Also, did you connect directly to the battery clamps? I just installed a Warn 9500ti and it didnt have any wiring hardware with it. Just two heavy cables in black and red...limited instructions.

Any help or pics how yours is installed?

Thanks

My rig is in having the front bumper coated with Gardit, so I cannot include any pics. I ran both cables up through a small area by the washer bottle, and then ran them along the inside of the engine compartment and to my battery. I tie wrapped them together when I got them in place, and tie wrapped the area where they come up into the front of the engine so they did not touch anything and were free from sharp edges or heat. Works great.

your welcome. I know the one pic of the wheelwell looks kinda like the wires hang out but they don't. Nothings pinched or kinked either. everything is relaxed and loose.
