i did post this elsewhere but, mine came fitted when i got the quad, wasnt really bothered about them, until you use them. one of the best upgrades in my eyes,
also think about handle bar muffs, they look really stupid but keep your hand dry and warm. i will get a pic

Why are you worried what they look like, fingers get very painful when quadding all day in the cold, why worry what a bit of comfort looks like ??

Hi all, I got some heated grips given to me for Xmas, look quite simple to fit, have the Renegade boys got theirs wired directly to the battery or to an ignition supply that means grips only heat when key is switched on. Don't want to get a flat battery if the quad isn't used for a few weeks

I wired direct to battery just remember to switch off when stopped but mine do have a safety cut out when battery voltage drops

mine are wired through a relay, with the switch taken from the ignition, so when the keys off, the grips are off, saves remembering;)
