AM, or Honda?

Alumalite makes a bad ass cab for the 1k. I'd definitely go soft doors for genuine Honda parts though. That way when it's 80° you can take them off and store them flat in the camper.

I'd have to agree with Mopar on this.

I got mine from Amazon. I'll try to post the link here at lunch time. They are only OK at best. Maybe cut 85%of the wind out above 20 mph

Yea they're Honda. And we're like $10 cheaper on Amazon then my dealer. Plus I didn't have to go pick them up. For their price I was a little disappointed with the fitments to the rops on them.

The trick is to not use the supplied template and fit the frame a little more to the inside of the ROPS. Adjust it with someone helping and when at its best spot drill it. Our 700 we used template on driver door it was crap then I hell married it in passenger side it fit good. The 1000's I didn't bother with the template and it actually fit pretty well. If it sits more to the inside you're much more comfortable towing it too.
Best to spray foam hinges before install so there's less door sag and the doors will have to be readjusted a little on the front hinges. If someone takes the time they aren't horrible. Also put small screw and nut through the strap into the door handle or you'll loose it

Really pretty simple just pull the doors and there's a cap on top and bottom where the hinge pin mounts through pull those and screwed up in the really good making sure it's pretty full around where the plug goes back in. After it sprayed in put the plug back in and wipe off the excess best just to let it dry for at least a full day in warm temperature then reassemble.

Your going to have to make a roof rack for the plastic kiddie pool and pink flamingos. If your going to live in a trailer do it right! And maybe just wrap it in tyvek, and shingle half the roof lol.
