What should I get first ?

I'm new to the utv world and just got a 2015 XP1000 . I see so many things that are made for them and was wondering what everyone does first.

Winch, top, and windshield. I have many options to choose from and can make you a package deal.

Winch is for sure #1.

I would say winch then top . In my opinion windshields are a waste of money .

I ride at night alot so light bar was first. Then I installed a half or quarter windshield. Next is audio. I never ride alone or mud so no need for winch.

I would say top because I hate the sun beating down on me .

I would say roof of some sort, aluminum make noise unless it's 100% secure and isolated, fabric get dusty quick, are easily to clean and remove if you want to. Plastic so far for me has been the best. Durable and lite. I see no reason fir a winch, but I ride mostly sand and I'm sure someday I will wish I had one, 1200# at a funny angle or stuck might as well be a rock. ..

Friends with winches are awesome! That way I don't have to buy one. . Lol

Ohhh yes, You want lower door inserts or new doors. The first mud/dirt ride you go on, You'll know why...

I would have to say if you ride on the trails the door should probably come first even before the top.

I vote for doors first .

The first thing I did was put on was a roof because we have a lot of sun here in AZ.

I would say roof then doors .

Consecutively...Roof, doors, storage box, UHMW skid plate, street legal kit, stereo, bead lock wheels, high clearance a-arms and end links.

Ahh...Beach Leo is absolutely correct...safety FIRST. The factory seat belts are not sufficient for many of the things we do in our UTVs. I have Dragon Fire 4 point harnesses that are awesome. I have personally witnessed some incredible rollovers in Moab where the seat belts surely saved the occupants from serious injury or death. I would replace the factory belts first and do the other additions afterwards.

Think Safety First

Does the xp1k come with 4 or 5 point harness?

If it does not come with one

That is the very first thing you should get

first thing to do is get a second job to get all this stuff

Lower doors and roof. I have about 1200 miles on my rzr and haven't needed a winch yet. I can see why some people want them. But it is a lot of added weight on the front end. Also, most of the winching that you need to do is from the rear to winch out of something that you got into. A front mounted winch is not much help in those situations.
