If you're alone (self-rescue), then surely you're going to be seated in the driver's seat!

two comments to add:

- when running the wired remote into ur jeep put the wire under the driver's side rubber hood latch to help keep it in place.

- someone said the wireless remote is less precise for bumping which can be really bad as u wind in ur cable to the end; don't want to accidentally over wind it in to ur roller fairlead & bend it!

Thanks all for the info. For those using wireless remote, do you also have a power interupt kit?
