  1. 1000-3
Just purchased the Pioneer 2021 1000-3 limited viper camo. Been researching on procedures for upgrades like soundbar, auxiliary battery and light bars. The unit comes with several extras already and of course some changes. Having trouble finding videos with upgrades to this unit to determine, what I need and don't need. If the unit already is equipped for the accessories or I need to add/ purchase. Anyone familiar with upgrades to this unit?

Welcome from the mountains of WNC, we need picks and a list of accessories that came with it and where you ride(what kind of trails) but what you really need to do is ask...
“How big of tire can you run without a lift.”

WELCOME from NW Arkansas if you're not a poser, pic's are required for authenticity, so this is a temporary welcome until we get pics, are you getting the drift yet? HA!

We are talking about removing the rear sway bar links, 31" tires on stock arms, making sure its not too tall for the garage, and side by sides that can drift but WE NEED A VIDEO TO MAKE SURE IT HAPPENED! Otherwise how do we not know if you just pushed it over during its rollover? We want to see it high speed onto its side.

Firstly, welcome! In your quest for info and ideas, also include the P1000-5 LE, as most mods will apply the same as on your -3. Most will also be the same with some lesser cost models as well as with the SE I bought. What I did is used the search function to get info on each upgrade I did. I copied some ideas and on some stuff, like light bar brackets, I made my own.

The SE comes with a winch, front bumper, and is wired for heater & windshield wiper (no switches for that stuff installed, but the wired plugs are sitting behind the provided accessory switch panel). Here's a couple of the projects I've done.

Made my own light bar brackets so the curved light bar doesn't block any of the top of the windshield, yet is as low as possible relative to front edge of roof. Also brackets are not through bolted, I used rivet nuts.

Dual purpose rear bumper. (Since photo, I've added a cover for jack mechanism and a foam handle cover for the jack.

Thank you for the info and great ideas. The curved light bar bracket design is genius.
