I think you mean solonoid box is mounted to winch (I thought all hi mounts were Question

) But you said old which is easy (and better as they have better solonods)as there are only 3 wires; power, in & out. So get some trailor flex and some spring switches that don't stay on and you'll be laughing. Pick up the power from the solonoid box, sort out what is in by using remote, the 12volt will liven up one set of solonoids then vica versa for the in, wire up the switch and your done. I recommend using the remote you have rather than having one mounted on bullbar. It's easier, less to go wrong, you should allready have one and it can be opperated from side of vehicle.
