Q: 

Windows Service Install

I have a WCF Host with an Installer. What I'd like to achieve is to be able to communicate with another WCF service already installed as Windows Service on some machine.

Is this possible ? Maybe if I override the Install method of the installer? Is this recommended?

Do you guys see another way of achieving this?

A: 

What do you want to do at install time? Your idea of overriding the install method of the installer class sounds like the right idea to me.
