I think my P5 needs these tweaks to make it usable for how & where I ride.

30" tall interco's with 2" wheel spacers, I now have ground clearance.
SSS full skid, because I go places where I need to slide off rock ledges
FULL SNORKEL & VENT LINES! Because reasons.
JWB style Double air shocks! I can articulate more than conventional shocks because I have no spring bind. I can use the entire stroke of the shock and/or A-Arm. And the adjustability is awesome.

These are luxuries.
Moose roof
DIY lexan rear window
DIY rack tray
DIY Bluetooth Boom cooler / drybox
DIY contoured under-hood hand laid fiberglass storage tray/bin (Thread somewhere)
Lots of Lightbar & winch!

Bucket seat conversion. Makes riding so much less abuse and less work. Plus i could swap back to stock literally as fast as i can pull them out(which requires spinning off a mower handle type wingnut). Find some rzr seats cheap or go all out with a full suspension style $$$, either way its waaaayyyy more comfy.

How much did you pay for your seats and where did you find them.

I paid 50 bucks for the pair off of craigslist. I have about 25 bucks into the materials to mount them. Just some flat steel, some slotted angle iron, and a bit of hardware. Edit, truth be told i have an extra 75 into getting one cover re upholstered cuz it had a couple of orange inserts on the seat base. So im into them for about 150 total, but still worth it at that price all day long. The extra $ on the vinyl was just cosmetics so not really necessary. Just didnt like orange with the camo..

First round of P500 stuff:

Honda hard roof 1 - one of the best accessories and looks good

Honda full windshield 1 - works very well in hot and cold

Kimpex rear windshield 3 - not necessary in summer but needed with doors for cold, wet weather

Honda fabric doors 5 summer - 1 cold weather

Silent rider muffler 2 - need other sound damping mods to get full value

Bronco side mirrors 1 - good value for the $s

Honda rear view mirror 5 - poor optical quality and I keep bumping my head on the damn thing

Honda rack box 2 - very expensive but nothing else like it

Ram mount self-leveling suds holder 1 - don’t leave home without it
