P1000 UTV 801 glass windshield vs. Kolpin glass windshield

[TrailBlazer1000]

I need help deciding which windshield to get for my 2016 Pioneer 1000-5. I know I want glass and I found two that have vents for airflow. Anyone have any experience with either of them? Pros/cons? I have the links below. Thanks in advance.

Honestly there is no way the koplin windshield will flow as much as the utv801 windshield. I love mine. We live in a much cooler area but I have no issues with ours.

Neat to know that Kolpin is selling a glass windshield now. Wish they Seoul’s make it cheaper tho

Yeah it looks like quite a difference in ventilation size. Have you had any issues with the rubber on the bottom of the vent from opening and closing it? Was it easy to install? Did you purchase the manual wiper with it?

I don't have any issues with the rubber seals. I did take off the seal that runs against the roll bar on the flap to make it easier to open and close. The flap isn't perfectly contoured to the hood but I've never had rain come in through the bottom of it. There is a gap between the top of the windshield and the OEM roof. I bought from a/c weather seal foam and filled in the gap there, we take it out during the summer to allow more air for the back seat riders. I didn't buy the manual wiper but wish I had, we are mostly fair weather riders really.

Great. Thank you for the information. I reached out to UTV 801 via email and will be ordering tomorrow.

Sorry for the late reply, Im crazy busy right now. but I have the Koplin Mirrors but i don't think they make them anymore. This is the "Updated design" Amazon.com: Kolpin UTV Side Mirror - Pair - 98315: Automotive

Did you remove the two L brackets at the top that were used to align the windshield or keep them on?
