What to cover hole on top of Zeon 10s after Control Pack Relocation?

[AEsco48]

Installed the 10s and did the Long Relocation Kit Warn 89960, like the stealth look but now need something to cover this huge hole on top of the winch... Don't need the sun beating down on the synthetic rope all the time.

Where did you relocate the box to? Really want to get mine under the hood somewhere instead of running a solenoid to avoid running fat, hot 12v cables through the front crumple zone.

First off, my JT is a Diesel so the engine bay configuration/space is different than the gas version.

Im happy with the stealth/low profile install, but not happy about the big hole at the top.

Pro:
Stealth
does not affect air flow/cooling
no live positive cable going to the front

Cons:
Hole at top of winch and no off the shelf solution that is well made/finished
Instead of just two big #2 wires, there are four
No space to mount control pack
now need to route the control connector back to winch as I don't want to be required to open hood
Cable routing space is tight.

The black cable protector is some cheap auto parts store stuff that is temp. Control pack mounting is temp obviously

I think im going to do away with the control pack relocation, install the control pack in the original location and just install a solenoid connected to the #4 Aux switch so the positive cable is only live when i (or my 2 and 3 year olds) click the aux button. Will manatin live wire safety, reduce cable routing congestion, not have the solenoid mounting issue, controller connector will again be in a suitable location... But will give up the stealth install.

Photo dump:

I did find this product mentioned in a Youtube video, but other than find this picture on the FB page of the company... Have not found any more info/pics and the company does not respond to emails or phone calls. Also don't think the solution is that well executed anyways.

Appreciate it but yeah that's a fair bit different haha. For now I'm just mounting a 600A switch on the bracket for the engine cover that's no longer there but at some point I might just mount the solenoid to the front of the battery box... I have a fair bit of space there since the Hauke snorkel airbox is so much smaller than stock.

I just ordered the plate that was in the picture above. Evidently the company has changed names. The new name is Innovative AT Products now. Here is a link to the cover plate for anyone interested. I am not affiliated or anything, I wanted to share this, as I was ready to make my own plate.

Did you ever install this plate? Did it work with the EVO winch?
