Yea mamas got eagle eyes! For the defroster I don’t want to spend hundreds to buy a heater so I’m thinking of picking up a power steering cooler and trying that inside of a box. I’m going to use an engine compartment blower from my boat and the duct work from Summit Racing but I’m still gathering stuff.
Thanks for the tip but I’m trying to plumb in a defroster using the Summit Racing defroster kit. It seems I have the bug. I’ve had the 500 for less than a month and already have installed a Honda roof and full windshield, Bronco mirrors, made a box with spare tire rack,and a homemade rear bumper. I have temporarily tried a plumbed in defroster using a homemade fairing around the head for heat. It worked not too bad until I splashed through the first puddle

A tachometer, interior lights, back up LED’s and a light bar just happened to arrive at post office today.
I’m going to be busy putting more stuff on tomorrow so I’ll post more in a few days
It’s looking great! Show us your progress tomorrow if you get around to it.
Kinda hard to see the interior lights but they’re those cheap LED strips from Amazon and only got one headlight on and a switch panel hooked up today. I also installed a wireless remote for my winch but it went poof when I tried it, so it came back out. I got a cool 5 switch panel also from Amazon and mounted it under the reverse lock out lever (lever disconnected) but it was too dark to take the picture so I’ll post a pic later.
Heck yeah, that looks awesome! I wish I wasn't so intimidated by electrical shtuff.
You’ll get walked through anything you want to do here, maybe some stuff you don’t want to do lol.
Cool video SouthWest. I love your riding areas! Keep them coming
Agreed, desert riding is cool. You’ve got some beautiful riding up your way too OF!!!
Me too, but Rambo prevailed.Lol, thought you was stuck there for a minute.
New (larger) tires should help a tad.
The best part about my riding area is that it's vast. In a lifetime I could never explore everything around me - so much open country, so few people, few laws, no oversight, nobody cares = OHV dream.
Oh absolutely. I'm a believer in adult supervision on this one. My boys get too confident quickly behind the wheel of the P500. They learned how to shift already on the little CRF dirt bikes, so now the Pioneer is intuitive and they take to it like a pig to mud. They LOVE it. But they start getting gutsier, cornering more quickly, etc, and I don't want to be a statistic so I just stick around and they keep it in check. They've both taken enough spills on the dirt bikes they know how it feels to crash so I can let them dirt bike on their own and they self manage very well. But they have not (and hopefully will not) experienced a wreck in the P500...I bet if you go inside and leave the "teenage boys" out there alone, you will see dust flying around
