You can hardwire in a switch like # BDW20173 to your winch. It simply gives you a controller at a different location to assist you in using the winch. These parts have not been tested with your winch, so I can't confirm the which power specs and relay will work together, but they should work without much issue.
I've linked the page to all your winch and winch accessory options to assist.
