I thought there were 2 winch kits. One for the brushguard and one for without??
That is true for Gen4's like the ATP and old-style sportsmans. But for 05 and up, you use the prewired kits which are one size fits all. The 05+ brushguards are open where the winch goes so there is no interference.

For MUDATV700, here are links to polaris's brushguard and front and rear bumpers.

They also have a bodyguard brushguard, but unless you get the whole set of bodyguards ($$$$) it would look odd. And I think the bodyguard is a semi-waste of money, I think I'd rather scratch my plastic than a $150 piece of painted armor. But if they were cheaper, I'd definetly consider them. This system can be viewed here in its entirety.

The storage is plentifull and very nice but not completely water PROOF, they have drain plugs.
I would put everything you can fit in there for long trail rides
-socket set
-wrenches
-driver w/bits
-TOW STRAP
-bunges
-fix-a-flat
-tire plugs
-spark plugs
-multi-tool
-pliers
-condums*
-snacks
-water
-cell phone
-small calapsable military shovel
-12v air compressor or hand pump
-money.

* you never know.

QUOTE from MUDATV700: Windshield???? eh I don't think I'lll need that one

You'll wish you had one come January.....I suggest hand guards and warmers for the same reason.

You have a great machine, BTW. I've never owned a Polaris, but I have plenty of friends and relatives that do.

I use my wheeler to plow and play in the winter (really cold up here). I got the handwarmers (they were a total necessity) but that's it. When plowing, I have to keep my face covered with ski goggles and a neck tube, and when playing use a warm sled helmet. If you werent properly dressed (or riding in rain etc) I could see how a windshield could definetly help.

That's a great site, floodrunner. It's all the mods that I've been wanting to do, but done for me and seem to be quality.

Except for the stereo, I can't say I've been meaning to do that.

I guess it just depends on how much you're into doing tunes on the trail (hehehe).
