Stock Lighting Question
I rode for the first time at night this evening and when I use my brakes or the fan kicks on the lights dim tremendously. Is this normal for a RZR I am used to Rhinos, and if so what can I do to fix it.
Thanks

Re: Stock Lighting Question
relocate the voltage regulator from under seat to under hood area. it needs airflow. it shuts down when it gets too hot.

Re: Stock Lighting Question
What about mounting a small cooling fan right on top of it. Almost the same as a cooling fan from a computer. They're quiet, use very little power, and theyre cheap. it would keep a constant circulation of air on it...
