Sportsman side panels question and what year is the machine?
I just bought a sportsman 600, Ithe didn't come with a registration buto I checked the vin. And it wasn't reported stolen or salvage. He said it was a 2004 but I think it's a 2005. 10th number in vinew I 5 and it says production date is 9/10/2004. It has same front end as 05 it doesn't have square headlights. My question is: I need to order a used left side panel, but it looks like 2005 panels don't use the same as any other year.
is the only difference between the 06 and up models the hole cutout for the gas petcock? They look the same on the efi model minus the hole. I'm just trying to find a used one rather than spend $80+ for new one. If they are the same it will open up a lot more options for used on ebay. Thanks for any input

Other machines used the same black metallic left side cover other than the 600,that is if the Polaris Parts list is accurate. May help tracking one down easier.Listed as the front cab when you scroll over to usage of this panel,but is the panel part number.

No sure way to tell unless you have one in hand to try out as the part numbers do change. As far as the mounting tabs,etc,yes the carb and efi panels do look similar to one another,but this still won't answer your question as to where they can interchange or not with some modifications to an efi panel to allow its use on the carb model if that's what you're trying to do.Easier to just look for one of the models I posted that would absolutely fit.
