The dealer installed my land pride third function valve, all wires are hidden, and all hyd lines are tucked nicely out of the way. However I have seen some on this forum that are not protected. Good luck with your install.
Just like nbking - I had the dealer install my W R Long valve kit and grapple. Everything is on the inside of the FEL arms and protected from limbs, roots, stobs etc. A couple of pics will explain. Everything is either between the FEL and tractor body or covered by that "shield".
