$600 worth of plastic.
It's only money...
Took about 2 hrs. Pita.
Definitely a 2 person job.
Now I need to figure out how to mount my backup light. It really is needed.
Rode tonight and backing up by flashlight sucks.

I have the OE hard cab enclosure and mounted a set of led pods on the back of the roof. I ran the wires along the roll cage to the dash and wired them to a two way switch, one side they are on when key is on and the other way they are wired through the back up alarm plug so they come on only in reverse using a harness from the SXS store.

That sounds ideal.

I have the soft rear panel its ok, does the intended job and is easy to remove during the summmer, but I really like your set up with the hard panel.

  1. Do not currently own
Back from the dead.
I just installed the hard rear panel and hard top. Observations are that initially not difficult until it comes to the J clamps which are difficult to install because of lack of room.
By the way this is for a 2016 model 2 place pure stock.
The rear panel J clamps on top are predrilled as are the side holes.
The bolts supplied are too short 25mm for the side J clamps.
I used something I had until I buy 35mm tomorrow since this is Sunday.

Be careful the plastic edges are SHARP and will cut you.
Happy I have them installed as I use this 700 and my Teryx for my ranch not play and this keeps debris from falling on the inside during working in the forest.

The rear hard top was $700 and the hard top about $450 from a dealer in North Wilkesboro, NC.

Would I spend the money and do this again?
Yes because I need the protection for work.

I expected the noise level to be higher given the sound reflecting off the cab with a top and back panel.
Actually it is lower subjectively and I do have some hush mats to install to help dampen the noise level or mute it somewhat.

By the way I took my Teryx apart and put a lot of hush mat everyplace I could.
Result
Hardly a difference helped some on heat but that was it.

Hope this helps someone if they wish to install these two accessories.
I already had the windshield and have to remount my rear aux lights.
