Side view mirrors and seat extensions

[Rummy338]

I definitely feel like 2” seat risers will help with driving the X but also heard that Polaris side view mirrors won’t compensate for the additional height. I contacted Sizemik and they don’t make them for the X. Any recommendations for this issue? Thanks in advance!

Sector Seven has a mirror mount for the Northstars that mounts on the door.

If you don’t want it on the door, and you still have the flat outer A-Pillar plastic, you could probably mount it on there but you’d probably want to give it a backing plate or make sure at least one of the bolts goes through the metal plate behind the plastic to help support it.

I added 2" seat extensions and don't think I have an issue with the stock side view mirrors. Polaris Matte Orange Rust Xpedition ADV 5 NorthStar Accessories What I have an issue with is that I need seat belt extensions but can't find them.

Probably the easiest solution would be a piece of 3/16”x1” steel strap, and cut it to however long you want to raise the seatbelt buckle receiver, drill holes in each end, and bolt it between the frame and receiver.
If you don’t have an ECU tune that eliminates the seatbelt limiter, you’ll need the jumper wire, since the plug from the buckle receiver probably won’t reach the harness anymore.

I have thought about a riser too. I feel good at the seat hight now. Might be cool to see if it helps. As for the seat belt extension.. For ME it would probably be needed for my fat Taco ass. Cheaper than going to the gym, and i can continue with all my bad habits..

I added 2 1/2" risers. Mirrors were fine but will be cutting driver side down to 1 1/2". Tad too tall for me.

Just added the RPM seat riser to the driver side and am very happy with the result. I’m 5’10” and have plenty of headroom. Has anyone seen or heard of an adjustable seat pan for the passenger side?

Did 1.5 risers and have no issues with mirrors. Tried 2" and really didn't like them that high even though just a 1/2" difference.
