    HEATED Hand grips

    So, I am considering adding a heated grip set to my controls and wonder if anyone has done this before?

    If so what type did you use, and how did you wire them in? I'd like to retain my current grips if possible and just add them under the grips I'm just not sure if that is feasable or what

    Looking for ya'll experience in this to maybe learn something new. I'm also considering a heated seat pad too for chitzngigglze

    I put these to my Argo.



    I use mainly Argo at winter so these was right choice to my use. Those are thinner than orginals but not like mx-grips.

    Grips was easy to install. Just follow manual. Heated grips are great because you use thinner gloves and it doesent matter thats much if gloves get wet.

    Stay away from using the "easy" wire connector(s) that come with the kits. They tend to corode and leave your connection questionable after a year or two. (The side by side wire crimp).

    Oh, heaven's yes. If you're talking about those worthless "Scotch Tap" connectors, they're worse than bad. We build cop cars and the like here, and they're banned from this shop. They're like a time bomb, install one, and in 3 to 5 weeks, they go intermittent. Worst case, is they cause fires.

    Those variable power grips look like the ticket.
