Picked up the factory plastic canopy on Saturday for our new-to-us RTV 1140. We kept the old plexiglass windshield from our Mule and recut it to fit the RTV. After 11 years, the plexiglass is fine. We used a special blade for plastic in the jig saw and taped the windshield where it was to be cut. Worked out very well. The clamps for the windshield are 2" stainless with a rubber liner. I found these online. I believe the were made for electrical conduit. The mirrors I had laying around. I re painted them with bedliner to match the canopy. They are attached using the same clamps as the windshield.

I made a brief before/after video showing some of the details that I would have liked to have seen prior to buying the unit. Enjoy.
