My Sportsman 800EFI now has 3-way headlight and Reverse Over-Ride Switch.
I finished putting a couple of final touches on the 800 last night, and I must say I am very happy.
I placed a rectifier diode between the yellow and green wires located under the headlight pod coming from the handlebar switch....
I also placed a toggle switch between the grey/orange wire going to the speedo head and ran a black wire to the grounding block located under the headlight pod removable panel.... (Sort of hidden behind a realy block, has a gold torx going threw it, and a bunch of brown wires tied into it.) The toggle works great when you need it, and is turned off when not needed, and I need to access my functions with the yellow button.
Next mods:
Gots to get me some hand and thumb warmers, a nice loud horn, and my led light bar that I haven't found a spot for yet?
I will try and add pictures someday...
If anyone is looking to do the mods I may be able to help you find the right parts and walk you through it?

I was going to contact you, and thank you for your pics....
You have helped me out considerably.
The reverse over-ride was a life saver today... and I didn't get a chance to burn all 2 light bulbs.... but it will come in handy!
Have you ever fried a winch?
I toasted my 2500 lb warn today, pulling out of a river bank?
I actually saw sparks flying.
Warranty should cover it... Just need to pull it apart to find out if it was relay related.
Thanks again!
