Are you tired of picking bugs out of your teeth and using your fingers as wipers to clean your glasses? Then it’s time to add a windshield to your RZR.

Windshields are one of the most popular aftermarket products when it comes to protection. Whether you’re riding for sport, fun, work, or leisure, there’s a lot to risk when you sit behind the wheel of your UTV.

By installing a windshield, you’re protecting yourself from the trail and the elements. And it increases the comfort level of your cab.

Not sure where to start? No worries—this guide will give you a better understanding of the advantages and differences of each.

After all, once a bug hits your windshield the first time, it won’t have the guts to do it again.

Polaris RZR Flip-Up Windshield

There are two kinds of flip windshields: flip-up and fold-down. Our Polaris RZR XP 1000 Flip Windshield is our most popular among the market.

With this RZR windshield installed on your machine, you never have to pass up a day of riding due to the weather. You can keep it fully closed when it’s raining for extra protection, vent it when you need a nice breeze while keeping the elements out, or flip it up and give yourself the full airflow that comes with a half windshield.

Made with Quality Parts:

  • Full-length foam gasket and bulb seal to make sure it stays securely sealed
  • Heavy-duty clamps and metal cross brace for a tight fit to your machine, giving you a rattle-free ride
  • Gas struts to keep it from closing unexpectedly or bouncing up and down
  • Easy-access latch to ensure it stays closed on bumpy rides
  • XR Optic Hard Coating for scratch and UV resistance

Flip-Down Windshield

If you want a little more control of your cab’s comfort level, then our flip-down windshield is what you need. When’s its closed, you’ve got a solid full windshield to protect against wind, rain, and trail debris. But in a matter of seconds, it can be flipped down and secured giving you a half windshield.

Made with Quality Parts:

  • Polycarbonate windshield for maximum protection
  • Hood brackets installed at pre-existing mounting points
  • Rugged Velcro straps to secure windshield into place
  • Folding hinge that doesn’t interfere with your line of sight

Besides our clever design and top-notch parts, the best part of this windshield is its functional convenience of being a full windshield and, in seconds, flipping down, giving you a half windshield. Having control over your cab’s airflow guarantees a more comfortable ride, regardless of the weather or trail.
