Well done! That is one of the best install jobs I've seen on a UTV.

Not sure on the part number for the marine head unit cover. It's from Metra Electronics. They make a white and black one. The one I used is the black.

Hey, is the a premade enclosure or did you build that? I would like to do that same exact thing for a sub.
Man, your install looks real clean, very impressive

I did all the work myself. I made the speaker pods, sub box, iPod mount, and willing to do more

That is a Awesome setup. How does it sound over the engine noise and speakers placed under the dash? You should market the whole setup! I am sure you csn make some nice coin. I have to agree it is the nicest setup I have seen.

No issue with speaker placement. It over comes the engine noise no problem. This system is loud and clear.

I’m a dreamin` man….guess that’s my problem…..I can’t tell when I’m….not being real….(Neil Young) That’s the song currently playin` on my stereo. A post over on the PRC forum was asking for others to talk about their "dream ride." Anyways, I’ve been dreaming about putting a stereo in the Ranger ever since purchasing it. But there were other priorities that had to come first. It’s been two years now since purchasing it. Way back then, it was difficult to make a choice between the Ranger or the RZR. The Ranger won. ….ordered it with a 4.0 Warn winch (used often helping my neighbor moving rocks), extra armor, nerf bars, brush guards front and rear guard-bumper, Rangerware windshield (flip up), and a plastic roof. These accessories have served me well. The dual axle trailer has also paid for itself by hauling other things needed for projects around the house. This week, leg minder safety nets and turn signal kit were added along with a second battery. My gas gauge hasn’t been working right. It says the tank is full……all the time. That’s one quirk, this one doesn’t need. Sure, I always carry extra just in case. But, for peace of mind I put on the 06 Gas cap gauge. There’s other goodies that I’d love to have….. “Holders” for the spare tire, fuel can, tool box, high lift jack, and cooler. Bead-locks and tires. But for now, those are going to wait
Now the time has come for one of my dreams to become real. Stereo and speakers! Some of you have some great systems and I appreciate you posting up the pics too! Realistically, putting in a good sound system and having it look even half-way decent isn’t going to be a cheap install! Bare bones….stereo, speakers, pods(2), and mounts will cost me a grand from Polaris. Installing those bones would add a couple hundred more. Yesterday I visited a place called Innovative Audio. Wow! Can get a lot more bang for my bucks at this place. Went there to look at a “Kicker KMT6.” Man! Those suckers I mean speakers are huge! Wouldn’t mind putting them on our boat. But it’s overkill to put them in my Ranger. On a funny note, some customer put similar speakers in the bed of their Rhino!
I’ve been spending a lot of time in the PRC and SxS forums sorting thru posts related to stereos & speakers. Been considering the pod holders by ssv(?). But somebody else had what looked to be a cluster of speakers that mounted directly behind the driver and passenger. I’d like to find that post again! Innovative Audio told me they could put together a nice little custom install using an Alpine stereo with a plastic marine cover, under the hood amp, marine speakers, and a Sirius antenna for about a grand. Plus they could make fiberglass enclosures too. But “labor” costs will nail me, surely!
So now I’m wondering….. Can I “envision ” myself installing my own stereo system or am I just havin`a pipe dream? There is one thing I’m going to add to the Ranger that will make people wonder what I’ve been smoking. Often, when stopping for lunch or a smoke break….i put my feet up on the dash because the bus seat isn’t exactly what one could call creature comfort. Can’t see spending several hundred for a new one. Highway foot pegs….like I had on my 750 Yamaha Special would be the cat’s meow, so to speak. Harley footpegs would/will be a bit more costwise, but…. It’s gonna look a bit odd too. At my age, i could care less what people think about my ride. One more thing and I will wrap this up. I love the look of the new RZR sport!!! They should have called it a “wide-glide”…..imho. The Ranger looks like a monster RZR which I like. But…..but i don’t care for the new Ranger`s dash… Why bother with all those open cavities on that dash? ….and why take away the easy accessible storage door on the drivers side? Although I love the new seats, the rest of the interior turns me off. To do it again, I’d take the RZR wide-glide. But…the Ranger I have now, will remain in my possession for a long time. Might have to buy my wife the wide-glide…..someday. In the meantime, I will dream about what will make our Ranger even more perect.
Getting back to you....and your install. It's perect and i congratulate you on your expertise!!!
