Anyone installed the warn winch upgrade, from A2000 to 2.5ci?

The atv I bought included a warn A2000 winch, but with no wiring.  After calling warn, I was told I needed the winch upgrade kit.  Has anyone installed one of these?  Is a simple process?

Well, that was not quite easy.  I decided to mount the junction box (or whatever that this is called, where all the wires go to) inside the storage box.  I drilled 4 holes to mount it to the top of the inside of the box, and drilled holes in the side of the box for all the wires to go into.  I routed all the wires under the seat and gas tank, you can't see any wires at all unless you crouch down and look up.  Very professional job, if I do say so myself.  I'm going to go back and use some silicone sealant where the wires go into the box, make it all waterproof. 

I'm glad I did this, I had to use the winch 3 times my first time out in the woods!  These blackwater tires suck.
