    Are they easy to install. Probably makes sense to have when installed when I put the plate bumper on my truck. I was thinking about not getting one but on the off chance that I need one I guess it would be a pita to take the bumper off afterwords.

    They aren't bad at all, 4 bolts secure the winch to the bumper. And most aftermarket bumpers only take about 10 minutes to remove with a few basic socket sizes so it's not a big deal if you want to add one down the road

    Exactly this. Bumper are off and on, the hardest part is finding a spot to relocate the solenoid if you have to.
