Here's my problem. I've got a TRX450ES and it's getting a little worn down. The front bumper is very badly damaged and I pulled it off to try and put it back in shape. I succeded in destroying my front bumper, what a crime. Well, now I want to put a new one on. I got the idea to throw a Rubicon bumper on my Foreman. I plan on replacing the luggage rack as well. As far as I can tell the switch will work. Every mechanic at every place I have called say's "I just don't know" and that makes me a little worried about throwing 150+ dollars into a bumper I can't use.
So, all you riders out there, what do you think?
Can I put a 01' Rubicon bumper/luggage rack on a 00' Foreman?

The only way to tell for sure would be to get the two side by side and do some measuring. I haven't heard of anyone trying this switch. You might be able to just go to a dealer and get the measurements you need. It sounds interesting, but if I had to guess, I would say it probably wouldn't work.

Thanks Rubidude. Problem is the only Honda Shop around here doesn't have a 00' Foreman. All they have is the Rubi, Recon and Sport Quads. I live in South Carolina and my quad stays up North in Connecticut. I can't physically get the measurments myself. I want to get the parts, so when I go home on leave I can put the beast back together.
