The Baja Designs UTV RTL wiring harness, listed under SKU 640116, is a dedicated power and control loom for a Baja Designs RTL rear light on a two or four seat Can-Am or RZR. The manufacturer's install sheet is written for the Can Am Maverick X3 and Polaris RZR 1000, RTL Wiring harness. Its main advantage is length. The manufacturer built it to reach the mounting location of your RTL, so you aren't stretching a short universal jumper across the cage. The kit also includes an On/Off switch and supplied splice connectors for tapping the vehicle's brake and running light circuits.
Buyers searching for a Maverick X3 RTL harness or RZR 1000 rear light bar wiring kit should note what is not included. The manufacturer lists Mounting Hardware Included as No, so plan on sourcing your own switch bracket. Before you start, the install sheet recommends removing passenger seat. From there, the leads run along the roll cage and into the fender well, and the harness can be powered from the battery or from two terminals located underneath the center console. Match wire colors carefully, because the sheet directs yellow wire from harness goes to the brake light, and red wire from harness goes to running light. Compared with building a loom from bulk wire, this kit saves time and reduces guesswork on a clean, purpose-built RTL installation.
The manufacturer describes it for a two or four seat Can-Am or RZR, and its install sheet specifically covers the Can-Am Maverick X3 and Polaris RZR 1000.
Yes. The manufacturer lists an On/Off switch as included, but mounting hardware for that switch is not included.
The manufacturer's install sheet is for connecting an RTL light to the harness. The manufacturer's product description calls for the RTL harness to reach the RTL's mounting location, so confirm with the manufacturer before ordering if you have an RTL-S light.
Per the manufacturer's install sheet, the recommended first step is removing the passenger seat. Mount the RTL first, connect it to the harness by matching the colors, and route the harness along the cage and behind the passenger seat. Run the red and yellow leads into the fender well, then power and ground the harness at the battery or the center-console terminals. Drill out a location for the switch. Under the passenger fender, use the supplied splice connectors to tap the brake wire (white with orange stripe) and running light wire (purple with white stripe). Common gotchas include mixing up the red and yellow leads, and forgetting that no switch mounting hardware is included.
