Thanks. My main concern would be trying to reverse out of a mud hole or maybe backdragging snow while I plow. Appreciate the info.
My New (to Me) XP1000
Just picked up a 21 XP1000 in great shape.

She is going to replace my 2016 RZR 900 Trail. I'm excited to have heat and a windshield lol. This will be a camping/ trail rig in the summer and a snow plow machine in the winter. I already have some lights, switch panels, and a few other accessories ordered. Maybe a headache rack and bed cover will be on the list as well.
Not pictured is a set of Polaris tracks. Hoping they will up my ice fishing game this winter.
That being said I do have a couple questions:
-Are the Polaris LED Headlights worth it?
-Is the reverse gear the weak link I hear it is?
-Any 'Must Have" accessories? Interior storage, exterior parts, engine upgrades, ect....
-Anyone have experience with some of the larger power V plows? Thinking about upgrading from a straight blade..
In any case I have been lurking for a little while and appreciate all the write ups folks have left. Thanks all!

My thoughts exactly.
I was kind of torn between the Polaris Lock and Ride one or just spend the money on a RotoKap. I think Im going to go with the RotoKap since it will give you more bed space. It's pricy tho. You can get the EMP version for half the price. So it may just end up being whatever one is available in a few months when I pull the trigger. If you have any better options, I would love to hear them.

Well I don't plan on this turning into a build thread. But I figured I would share one of the first and most important upgrades: Lights.

A pair of Rigid Side-Shooters on the top of the windshield and a small Rigid 10" lightbar on the brush guard. At the moment only the 10" bar is wired up, my dealer was out of the upper harnesses. I still need to find something for the rear of the cab to act as reverse/backup lights.
Next step is to install the upper switch panel and bus bar. But that's going to wait until I have all the harnesses. No sense pulling the insulation down more often than I have to.
