I have a 2016 1000-5 sport with highlifter kit turning 30's. The highlifter kit is a bracket lift it stands the shocks up more where the stock they are at an angle.

Hey guys so I am on my way to vacation and my p1000-5 is coming in and the accessories will be put on by the time I get back. I asked the guys at the Honda dealership about a snorkel and they said unless you plan on forging rivers and ponds u would be okay w/o it. What say you guys. I don't plan on trying to be nuts but I like to party. How important is this mod. Thanks

Pick one you like and do it. The under hood version is pretty cool. The “thru the hood” version isn’t too bad either. If you like to party you may not want the one that kills off a cup holder.

I have crossed deep enough water I was floating every time I bumped the throttle the rig teetered. I don't have a snorkel or the upgraded splash shield I was following a highlifter Ranger 1000 he crossed I took my chance that was pre-lift. It was eerie I went deep enough the rig went completely silent I thought it stalled until I hit the gas pedal I kept moving forward. I don't recommend doing it I have been in deep water following snorkeled Rzr's I haven't ingested water yet.

Id say do the snorkel. Pick a style you like and go with it, its insurance for the accidental moments. Some of the ones that go through the cupholder add a cupholder to a new location. Through the hood is simple and effective. there are also ones that come up between the bed and front seats.

id also consider a second battery for your winch and accessories. Not hard to do but with the probox, winch, and other lights its not a bad idea to save your main battery and to make sure you are not drawing needed power from factory electronics.

I did a walk through of mine. Not hard to do and lots of info on this forum about how to do it. Great resources here

Well... Have 1 mile on my odo and took off and at 12-13 mph my Pioneer shutters like crazy and will not go any faster. In manual it will shift and if in neutral it will rev up just fine. Literally just got home anyone aware of this situation?

Plug in your seatbelt.
RTFM? Dealer didn’t do much of a walk around did he? Safety feature on 17+.

Can be defeated easily. JTW did a write up on it.

Was joke, not insult.

Smoke? Disabling seat belt will not affect anything except disabling speed limiter.

If you are smelling electrical, i doubt that is a good thing.

Smoke could be steam from driving in the rain?
