the Original MULE windshield is 20 years old, and has seen better days. It's filled with tiny scratches. and it's foggy while day driving and hard to see at night with the lights on. Well, Novus 2 fixed that!

my windshield looks almost 99% new, i was astonished at the difference. i tried it on a small area first to be sure of no adverse affects, and then did the entire both sides of the windshield and it looks great! I highly recommend it, and it's way cheaper than plexi or Lexan sheet.

post some pics later.

+++100 or so on this--I have never used it, but a very good friend who bought a retired CHP 900 Kawasaki did--with EXCELLENT results--look's like new.--10 years with the CHP is NOT light duty...

Another question for the UTV Board populace, anyone know if a plexi glass hardcoat is available for purchase? 

I know They sell windshields with a hard coat to prevent future scratches but is it cost effective or even possible for a average Joe to do this?

AFAIK the "hard coat" is part of a manufacturing process, not some "after-the-fact' application--could be wrong about this though...

that's probably the case as i'm not finding anything.

After i did novus 2, a few days ago i went back over it with Novus 1 which is a spray, and not a paste. it's more of a polish/cleaner, (like windex for plastic/lexan) and i tell you what that stuff works great! looking out that windshield has never been clearer!

      sector e1 regen has stopped (mostly) working
      By mark walkom
      the regen braking on my e1 has stopped working unless (for eg) I am going down a hill in low and it's slowing things down to stick to the 10kph limit. when I drive and take my foot off the accelerator it's not initiating the regen to slow things down and instead just coasts at whatever speed it is at, or speeds up as the regen is not limiting it. the brake lights work, so it's probably not a fault with the sensor on the brake pedal
       
      hoping someone else might be able to provide some suggestions on things to check, as the mob that I bought it off seem to have gone silent on me

      Coleman 550 - Added Lights
      By Alien10
      I added lights to the Coleman Outfitter 550 last fall.   I bought lights on line from Nilight, a 300 W  12" light bar mounted forward and 2 square 4" floods for the rear.  Those are mounted on the roof corners facing rear and downward just beyond the tailgate.  Nilights seem to be of high quality, as I've had them on my garden tractor for 5 years and still flood the way ahead with great light. 
      Both the front and rear lights provide amazing illumination making the OEM headlamps look like parking lights.  Made a connector for the front bar that plugs into existing headlamp switch so it is just part of that circuit controlled by the headlamp switch.   Rear work lamps were wired in using a rocker switch installed in the dash.  Backed up to the garden with the work lights and was able to harvest some tomatoes well past sunset. 
      What have you used if anything for auxiliary lighting on your UTV?

      back up lights
      By jimvmcgee
      I have a 2023 560 T Boss that I just noticed that back up lights not working, the camera come's on. The book tells you about tail light replacement, so was wondering if the lens is just there.
