I am a newbie from Northern Minnesota. I purchased my first SxS in March - Honda Pioneer Trail 3 seater. Thanks for all the useful information that I have already used from you guys. This is my first SxS and it is turning out to be a ton of fun.

I do have a question about an LED light bar location. I will be using my machine to plow so the fairlead location will not work. I am guessing that a rooftop light bar would be best. Does anyone have any experience plowing and recommendations for a light bar?

Howdy from Oklahoma and welcome to the club. Looks like your Pioneer is "dog approved". I cannot help on the plow either. My only plowing experience was with a mule named Queen, and that was way back in the 20th century.

Hello from central MN. There are options depending on how DIY you want to get. I made a mount that bolts to the bumper for extra lights. If you are keeping upper doors off cube lights mounted to the roll bar are also an option.

Welcome from Michigan!

Im in the north as well. I mounted a 54” curved bar at the bottom of my windshield. Works great. Id also recommend the Auxbeam panel.

Welcome from Ohio. I am running a KFI 72"plow and have had 0 issues . If you want an indestructible light bar that will outlast anything you put it on check out Black Oak led ,they are in Florida. I have the 20" combo spot/flood. It is 22,000 lumens. Almost too bright. Might want to sit down for price but as stated before buy once cry once 🤣 The club store also has nice light bars.ATTACH]448309[/ATTACH]

You don't have any issues with the lightbar being blocked by snow? I am used to plowing with a Rincon and the snow would come off the plow into the headlights.

No sir. With my Forman I did all day cuz its close to the ground and smaller plow.
As high as the pioneer is and the plow, you better be going fast like a battery ram to get that snow up there to block that light. Thats almost chest high
