Sorry Glen, I don't know how to drive the forum, I'll try again with the link:
http://disco4.com/forum/topic66592.html

The tray was from Goodwinch. I had one all lined up from Ray but it sounded sensible to me to get the full kit from one place so I got the Goodwinch one, plus it was cheaper. I was therefore disappointed to hear from the guy who fitted it for me that he had to modify the tray a bit for the winch to fit into it.

Here is another hidden winch solution from Taubenreuther in Germany.

Devon4x4 hidden winch mount

Decided for the Devon 4x4 hidden winch mount for the LR4.
First they raised the price of the mount extensively ("due to development costs") and then the part was on the site, but they don't deliver already for months and they don't react very quick to mail as well. I don't know what's going on there but customer service is not good I can tell you. I give them until today to deliver otherwise I quit.
Still I think its the nicest mount available for the LR4 in the market today.

UPDATE: I fitted the hidden winch mount with a Warn XDC winch. Connected to a second battery.
Looks stunning, excellent build quality, but blows a hole in your bank account (GBP958 for the mount only)....Smile
