Got everything in yesterday, everything looks great, very fast shipping, thanks again.
I'm waiting on Scotty C to send me my font bumper, when I get it, my winch and the lock box go on.

This is what they would be like, except I would add a strap to the tray that holds it and you wouldn't need the bungee cord, or I could keep it designed like this or if you have a request I'm open to ideas..are you interested in one?

Thanks man!
Got both my hand throttle and winch lock very quickly from 89!! 
Nicely put together package with instructions! Good communication throughout transaction.
I got the winch lock installed the other day, and am gonna try to get the hand throttle done today, time willing. I went ahead and got a longer bolt to take up the 1/8" from the box and I ran a bead of grey RTV around the inside of the lid to keep water/mud out and axle grease over the lock hole. In case of this, it'll take a week to find the box again! LOL!
THE LID SEATS NICE AND TIGHT, I just wanted to make sure nothing gets in there. Also, I cut down a rubber cap and slipped it over the engagement tab on the lock to really seat the lid securely to prevent rattling. Just make sure you cut the cap down or you'll break the key off in the key hole and spend an hour trying to get it out...
Good thing there's two keys included!! 
Here it is:
Thanks again man, nice work!!

Good idea on sealing the top and greasing the lock to keep muddy water out
Looking forward to feedback on the hand throttle! You're my first hand throttle customer

Everything in the kit was good to go and well put together! Very nice stuff! I was honestly a little leery of running the cabling this way but I'm quite happy with it. Anyone looking for a simple hand throttle setup, this is what you need!

Thanks Logan! I appreciate your feedback and kind words!
hmmm, I'll add some pictures to the install sheet...you'll want to mount the gas pedal linkage bracket like I mounted mine so it's more of a direct pull
Should be easy to just rotate it so you don't have to fully take the bracket off

Andrew, I've got one of Scotty's bumpers on the TG winch plate, and the same winch as you. What length bolts did you use to mount. I'm thinking 3/4"s will do the 3 by themselves, should I get 1" for the locked bolt?
