From hot desert runs to cold, muddy trails, this flip-up windshield gives compatible 2019–2023 Polaris RZR XP 1000 and XP Turbo models a quick choice between open airflow and full front coverage against wind, rain, snow, dust, and flying debris.
Why You’ll Love This RZR XP 1000 Flip-Up Windshield
- Change the setup from your seat: An easy-grip handle lets you raise the panel for airflow or close it when the weather turns.
- Stay open without constant movement: Gas struts support the raised windshield and help limit bouncing, dropping, and rattling on rough terrain.
- Lock down full coverage: Accessible latches hold the panel securely in its closed position.
- Take on rocky trails: Hard-coated polycarbonate helps resist impacts, scratches, and abrasion from branches, mud, and stones.
- Cut drafts around the edges: A full-perimeter rubber seal cushions the panel and helps keep water, dirt, and wind outside the cab.
- Preserve the view ahead: Clear PC and a UV-blocking coating help reduce glare and sunlight-related yellowing.
Best For Riders Who

- Want to open the windshield without removing and storing the panel.

FAQs
Q1: Does this windshield fit both two-seat and four-seat RZR models?
A1: Yes. It fits the listed 2019–2023 RZR XP 1000, XP 4 1000, XP Turbo, and XP 4 Turbo models, provided the vehicle does not have an intrusion bar.
Q2: What is an intrusion bar, and why does it matter?
A2: An intrusion bar crosses the front roll-cage opening and interferes with the windshield’s fit and flip-up movement. This product is not compatible with intrusion-bar configurations.
Q3: Does it fit the Polaris General XP 1000 or Ranger XP 1000?
A3: No. Similar engine or model numbers do not indicate compatibility. This windshield is designed for the specific RZR models listed in the Fitment table.
Q4: Can the windshield remain raised while riding?
A4: Gas struts support the open panel and are designed to reduce unwanted movement. Confirm that the struts and all mounting hardware are correctly installed before riding.
Q5: How is the windshield secured when closed?
A5: Easy-access latches hold the panel in its closed position and help prevent it from lifting unexpectedly.
