Newbie here... Whats a Trigger Shield?

Nice to see you branch out to other models. I can't imagine not having one on my buggy.

Just got done getting a hip injection, now hip doctor wants to refer me to back specialist 🤦🏻‍♂️ And some physical therapy 😳

Bummer to hear that. Also Not the NTC

I wouldn't mention "hip injection" in the NTC for obvious reasons...... #nohomo

By far the best addition I have seen for the P5.

I have said it many times here, the Trigger Shield is one of the best purchases I have made for my P5. With cold weather here, I have considered removing it until spring to allow the heat to come through. The thing that holds me back is the noise and dust reduction that the shield provides. It is such an easy install and removal, I may just go ahead.. then decide if the increased heat is worth the extra dust and noise. Thanks again @trigger for creating this product!

Thanks @KYgal83 . What's funny is that it wasn't my intention going in to address noise and dust, just the heat. Fortunately it helped with those issues too. I thought the P5 was bad with holes and open areas until I saw what other brands have produced. I've had the opportunity to see several different machines now and the newer ones are getting better at sealing these areas up. They still benefit from a shield as it's just plastic separating passengers from the engine compartment. Seems like some manufacturers just didn't care at all though. Made one for an Arctic Cat Wildcat Trail a few weeks ago and it was seriously WFO under and behind the seats. No plastics at all, remove the seat and you were looking at the engine. Under the seat was the skid plate with huge drainage holes where you could see the ground, I thought "that's it"? OMG!
These are pretty close to being available for lots of different machines and, for some of them, it would be downright stupid not to get one. I can only imagine how uncomfortable that ride must be.

Have you considered a 3 sided flap at the center seat belt area hole for heat? Secure back with duct tape in summer? I cut such a flap for the oil filter access hole mod cut out.

It was a great happenstance! Our first sxs was a 2009 Teryx that roasted my butt no matter what the season, (when it ran) it definitely could have used a Trigger shield! Glad to see you branching out to other models and brands! Congratulations!
