What mounts did you guys use to attach to the ROPS?

RB3 360'S

What mounts did you guys use to attach to the ROPS?

I used a set from tractor supply they were $20 bucks, I had to drill the slot out bigger and use some bigger washers but no big deal.

Awesome, thanks guys!

Ok so I finally got to run the wires and tuck everything out of sight. Ran everything along the factory harness and came up through the opening for the rear left light. Tapped in to the brake light there and left some future use wires for turn signals and an extra (+) wire. I sealed the RF box (just in case) and hot glued it to the inside of the compartment. Seems like it'll hold well, time will tell.

Over all not bad I think for under $150 including some mounts from Tractor Supply + you install time.

Thanks Adam!!

@Hondasxs could you build a plug and play adapter to use these without cutting wires?

Put me down for a pair when you get some more in the wife has wanted led whips for a while.

Just updated the original post. I got some more in. Shoot me a PM if interested! Thanks everyone

Shoot me a PM if you are still interested and I'll get them on the way!

I'm waiting on @Hondasxs to let me know if he can build the above referenced adapter.

What sort of adapter are you looking for? You'd just need to run power to them and then hook up your switch. Were you looking for an adapter for the controller with the turn signal/brake outputs? I can't get those controllers until after January sometime according to distributor so I went with a standard RF box that has more patterns. The new whips also have more LED's than the previous model (280 vs 225).

I currently have no plans to make this.

While I am open to custom request. I personally think the cost would out weight the benefits.

Also, I currently dont have the tail light connectors.

I recomend getting a red positap for the brake function. I did this this week myself.

For rear power. You can use the backup alarm socket. We have that for $10 in the store.

I could build them myself if I had the adapters. What is the correct tail light / brake light connector? Is it the 4 pin 1.5 Superseal Connectors ? I have yet to cut / spice a wire on my rig and have no plans to do so. I'm weird about that. 🤣 XTC makes a plug and play trailer light adapter (which I have), I guess I could buy another one and use it.

Can you plug it into the trailer plug? Just cant use whips when trailer is plugged in.

No its a three wire plug, brake is middle (green/yellow) wire. You can somewhat see it below

 

[Adam490]

@JenElio not sure if you cracked open the controller box before you sealed it, but everything inside is sealed in silicone from the factory. They are listed as water-resistant so sealing it up more probably isn't a bad idea since you've got it mounted a lot lower than I do (mine is on top of the ROPS under the roof) and play in the water a fair bit more.

I bought a connector here to replace a broken one I discovered on the rear tail / brake light harness after buying my used 2016 1000-3. The owner of this business is super knowledgeable about such things. I took a picture of the connector and sent it to him and he told me what I needed. Everything he sells is factory quality, no cheap crap like you get on eGay and Amazon. I'll pull the tail light assembly and see what I need. When I get the right connectors, I'll order some whips @Adam490 .

I don't have any more of the combos with the prewired brake/turn signal hookups. Those are backordered until after January per the distributor. I was able to get better whips (more LED'S) and controllers with more patterns this time, but they are not configured for brake/turn signals.

I actually did, accidentally. But I figured just in case, like you said mine is lower. I just wanted to get it out of sight. And even just up under the roof it'll still get plenty of water from when I clean the buggy so....... I figured tucked away might work 🤷‍♂️
We'll see here soon when I take it out this weekend, trails should be pretty swamped 😁
