Over the winter I have been doing some updates and upgrades to our buggy. here are some pics of my projects.

I saw on a website a grab handle like this so I thought I would give it a try. I had some scrap metal and pipe for the handle. I found the square tubing at Lowes for about $ 8 and the pad and grips for around $35.

Last year I built a tool box but over the summer I found some flaws with the first one, for example we did not have enough extra room for jackets, and it would not open all the way because of the roll bars, so here is the new model. it is taller in the front, more room inside, has a slanted top to help the water run off, and will open all the way.

Last year on the RZR form ride I dropped my phone in the woods, luckily I found it. so now the wife made us cell phone cases that fit around our harness

And then with a little over time at work we upgraded to the PRP 50/50 seats

I used Plywood to make the box, and wrapped it with fiber glass. also something I did with this one was made a strap and mounted it to the bottom, so when you remove it for cleaning it gives you a handle to help lift it out. I also went to the auto parts store a bought a sun screen for a windshield and used that HV/AC tape to cover the bottom to keep the heat down in the box, It seems to work because our coolers are inside and stay cool all day.
