Looking for some good, and ideally reasonably cost side mirrors for my rzr xp 1000.
Don't feel like gotta spending $150+ for nice breakaway/billet type ones.
Any recommendations? Will OEM work?

Cost consideration:

Installed these around 2018-2019. They have taken a beating from tree limbs . I'm surprised that they have not shattered yet, being glass.
Spray painted mine black. Did not care for the bright aluminum accents.

Pro's:
For me, I like the horizonal field of view vs the vertical styles.
Glass type mirror.
Been durable beating on tree limbs

Con's:
Had to paint for my liking
China-mart.. Lol read the descriptions... "Fragments is not splash-keep the driver safe when the mirror get violen from outside" :unsure:

Tip:
Take them apart. Clean the corrosion preventative goo off of the socket and ball stud. Add loctite to the mirror screws
I mounted mine high on the cage instead of low, near the door. It seems to give much better rear coverage and sight picture
Caution, if you do mount it high. You will smack your head a few times and become creative with words.

I just spent a buttload of money (to me it seemed like a lot) on atv-tec elite mirrors... don't waste your money. If I were doing it over again, for the riding I do, I'd by a set off Amazon for $30 and run them until they break and then buy a new set.

These have worked out well on my RZR Trail. $20 side mirrors and $33 center mirror.
They don't vibrate.

I wasn't thrilled to pay the higher price of the Siezmik, but I did and they are very nice. Good build, they don't vibrate, and their warranty is great. Had some of the plastic caps fly off on the first ride and they sent me new ones immediately. Because of this, I bought a second set for my other machine last week as my Polaris knock-offs aren't all that great and now that I've lowered the cage, which forces the A-pillars down and back, they don't provide much of any useful view.

I got these a couple months ago for a little less but still nice mirrors.

I had the Seizmik Strike mirrors (ABS) on my X3. I gave them to my son and bought the Seizmik Pursuit mirrors (aluminum) for my TRE. Both sets are pricey at $100/$180, respectively (links below). I think you can find them on Amazon a little cheaper. With Seizmik's unconditional warranty, in theory, it's a once and done kinda purchase. That's assuming all your future SxS purchases have the same size ROPS. But, you pay for it. LOL

My only complaint with the ABS Strike mirrors was that they use a "ball socket joint" as opposed to the "notched detent" with "adjustable independent glass" that the Pursuit mirrors have. I ride some pretty tight, wooded trails where tree branches are constantly slapping the mirrors. The Strike mirrors got to be such a PITA to adjust every time, I got to where I just left them folded in. With the Pursuit mirrors, I just push them back out to the original detent and everything's back in alignment.

I really liked my ATV-tek mirrors I had on my 900, and I like my current seizmik mirrors just as much.
I wouldn't buy anything without a fold/breakaway feature. I have them folded in for me occasionally on the trail, and I fold the manually every time I pull into my garage, just because we walk by it all the time and I don't want them bumped.
