5 Must-have gifts for the Polaris SXS enthusiast on your list

The only thing Polaris SXS owners love more than tearing up backcountry roads and mountain trails is tricking out their off-road ride. So, if you’ve got someone on your gift-giving list who is obsessed with their Polaris SXS, we’re here to help. Here are a few things that are bound to increase their blood pressure and put a smile on their face.

Winch

Every Polaris SXS owner who pushes the limits (and they all do!) should have a winch. This crucial piece of equipment will prepare riders for the unexpected and let them adventure with confidence. Rough Country has an impressive, well-designed collection ranging in price depending on how much weight you need to pull.

Audio

Every Polaris SXS junkie wants a Rockford Fosgate or a Polaris audio roof, but they cost thousands. Still, nothing goes with off-roading like an unstoppable playlist. The Kemimoto soundbar is highly recommended. It mounts on the rollbar, is waterproof, has a USB port, and doesn’t cost more than your kitchen appliances.

Another high-performing, reasonably priced option is the Ranger wireless speaker from TurtleBox Audio. It’s built for the outdoors, and what we love about this option is that it can go from the SXS to the golf cart or bonfire with ease.

Lights

Of course, nearly every Polaris owner wants an after-market LED bar (several good options can be found at Baja Designs), but once again, they can be very spendy.

A more affordable (and very popular) option is whip lights. These lights provide extra safety when riding in dunes or at night, and perhaps most importantly, they ramp up a Polaris SXS’s swag factor. Buggy Whip has a wide, affordable selection.

Cooler

If you want to spoil the Polaris SXS owner on your list, you can just go straight to Polaris’ Northstar cooler.  These top-shelf coolers are designed to fit a Polaris SXS, but are also extremely rugged (even bear resistant!), and can endure extreme temperature fluctuations.

Polaris SXS enthusiasts also love them some Yeti coolers (who doesn’t?), but a slightly more affordable and well-liked option for Polaris SXS riders is an RTIC cooler. RTICs have similar ice-retention capabilities to their more expensive counterparts but are lightweight. As RTIC’s motto says, “Ditch the weight, not the fun.”

XFrames Mount

Polaris SXS owners are typically hunters and sportsmen who want to bring their favorite rifle or shotgun off-roading with them. But who wants their carefully sighted-in firearm bouncing around on the backseat? Meet XFrames, a Kentucky-based company that fabricates the strongest mount on the market, made from American steel. The mounts, specifically engineered for Polaris SXSs (Ranger, General, and UFORCE models), are affordable, easy to install, and keep firearms secure while allowing quick access.
