While you can't buy anything from this forum, all the info you need to make good buying decisions is on this forum. Invest time in reading, searching, participating.
If you know what you want, search for it here using the search feature. Pay attention to the date and the model of Ranger being discussed.
If you don't know what you want, just go spelunking through the forums.

Your machine is compatible with most accessories made for a Ranger 1000, regardless of year. There are a number of exceptions, so double check first. And in most cases, if you come across something you like/want, there will be a version for your machine. So don't get stuck on looking for 2025 specific things.

Many/most of the accessories I have added to the Rangers I have owned weren't made for a specific Ranger. Or indeed a Ranger at all. It's important you decide what you want first and then figure out how to get there. You can save a crap ton of money doing the wiring or the fabricating yourself and avoiding "kits". And the end result will also be better or closer to your vision. Instead of one-size-fits-all, the thing will be exactly as you want it.

I installed a delay wiper kit. 0-30 seconds. Get your front wheels aligned. Have them straight.

Do people really change the oil and filter after 25 hours? And did you put in synthetic?

Yup, mine were out of alignment as well, had to keep the steering wheel at 10 o'clock to keep it straight on the road until they fixed it.

IMHO, 1st svc after break-in is the most important on any equipment; I've always found some level of metal shavings on the magnets on all my equipment due to the inherent action of break-in.

Oil is subjective based on your uses & experience, using manufacturer recommended fluids & filters is good practice unless you have experience in cross referencing fluid types / viscosity, specs, etc & know what you're doing.

Personally, I use higher grade fluids in some of my equipment that works harder in hotter temps at higher RPMs (37 HP Scag and 50 Hp tractor get better than OEM spec)

As cheap as fluids / filters are, it's inexpensive insurance and makes warranty claims easier if something were to happen.

Just my opinion, and there's lots of differing opinions out there, but thats what I do....

For whatever it is worth, you do not need to buy Polaris branded accessories. Some of the Polaris branded accessories are really good. Front and rear glass, roofs, and doors especially. Lighting and others not as much. Polaris tries very hard to close their ecosystem and verticalize their market. To train their customers that the only options are Polaris options.

For myself, I tend to buy Polaris branded cab accessories and tend to not buy Polaris branded anything else. I would especially avoid Polaris branded audio gear. And their lighting options are silly expensive and mediocre performance (with some exceptions, like everything).

They are also seemingly deaf and blind. I bet several hundred thousand Rangers have backup lights installed. Only in 2025 is this quasi-officially supported. And no actual Polaris product to do it. So don't think they have any sort of idea what we want. As far as I can tell, they just make (re-brand) random stuff and hope it sells.

Anyways, I didn't start this to be a tirade, lol.
If you want lighting options, there are soooooo many examples of sweet setups here on the forum. Using ingenuity and creativity and non-Polaris stuff.

I have polaris side mirrors, they're great. We have turn signals in the headlights themselves. Also have their sun visors too which we absolutely love. And lastly, find someone that's highly reccomended and get your windows tinted..
