About to install my warn winch and MOPAR LED 7 inch lights on my factory steel bumper. If anyone has any pictures of how they wired their winch and or grille lights that would be extremely helpful!

Lots of winch install videos on YouTube that show a pathway for the wires.

I went with the removal of the factory air box route . Made it much easier to get the wiring run up to the battery. sorry no photos but I did get the idea on a you tube vid .

Easiest and best way to get them in the engine bay. Just avoid any sharp edges and you'll do fine.

Looking for gladiator
I used the fender removal method shown in this video around the 5:40 mark. Was pretty good. Broke a couple of the clips that hold the fender on during removal. But a 25 pack of them is $8.

I slipped it up between the passenger side front fender liner and the body

That reminds me, i'm going to have to reroute this when I chop the fenders

This video was very helpful. When you remove the fender, is there anything to unclip that powers the lights? It just looked like he pulled it off after unbolting it.

On the passenger side where the bumper meets the frame rail, you should see a grey connector. That connector is for the fog lights. That is the only electrical connector you need to disconnect.
