New RTV X 1100 CAMO on the way

Nice looking setup you have there.

An observation for whatever its worth. Lots of folks with those super expensive glass windshields trailor their RTV's facing to the rear. Helps to protect against rocks thrown at ya by the big rigs and others. Your rear window is somewhat protected by the utility screen

Thanks Keifer good advice I will remember that when hauling it around

YES! If you have a glass windshield, you should always drive in reverse. Your nice plow is then a back blade.

If you did the install can you tell me how/where you did the wiring?

Thanks

Great pictures of good looking machine!

Thanks tailrotor for the pictures. I will def have to put some of those lights on mine if it ever comes in. Sitting around with my hands in my pockets waiting for it to get here. Trading my old 05 Polaris ranger 700 and a Honda foreman 450es in on the Kubota. Check your pm I left you a message. Thanks...Max

Hi Tom

I did do the install. All the 1100 come pre-wired from kubota. I had ordered the factory work lights with mine and originally installed them which came with all the switches and brackets.

After reading on here and looking at the LED I had to have them. So everything was there for me to install the new lights but one mount that I made and had to splice into the wire harness for the other back light the rear work lights only come pre-wire for one back work light not two.

But it was very easy just dropped the head liner and run some new wire.
All the switches are available from kubota or after market but the mounts were not you had to by the work light kit to get the mount and I already had enough invested so I made mine.

But good luck with yours you need anything pm me and I be glad to help.

Thunderdome got your pm. I know the wait killed me to but I am very happy with it. Well worth it!!!

The lights in my opinion are a must have they are incredible.!!!

I also have a honda forman 450 ES but I kept it still use it for deer hunting were the kubota can't get in. It's a 1998 with only 1500 hrs it's like new.

Installed the front lights yesterday, it was really easy. The entire install took under 30 minutes. Thanks again for the information.

Good job Tom B here is a night shot of my LED lights front and back lights my driveway up like a airport. Lol!!!

Tailrotor · Sep 14, 2014

Another one these lights are awesome!!

bczoom · Sep 15, 2014

Dang, those things are bright. Curious how well they'll work for you in winter. When it's snowing, I have a problem seeing when the overhead lights are on. Either go snow blind or feel like I just did a time warp from Star Wars (where all the stars become streaks in front of you).
